I'm near the Home Flair complex, half a mile from Parkgate just off the Rotherham Road.

Staff rushed here last night and have been shifting furniture ever since.

Earlier, I spoke to Adrian, the owner of Cafe Cristinnace, which sits on the banks of the River Don.

He told me: "The last 12 hours have been crazy. I've been panicking, watching river levels and the canal and keeping an eye on flood warnings.

"The tram tracks last night were just like another river and the road at the front filled with water.
