Devon severe weather floods roads and fells trees

Severe weather in Devon has caused more flooding on roads and trees to fall.

Devon County Council Highways tweeted there had been reports of standing water and flooding across the county, with motorists warned to not risk driving through flood water.

A large tree was reported to have fallen down near Dunkerswell, blocking the road.

Flood alerts were put in place on Monday morning, with 13 alerts across Devon and three in Cornwall.

In Cornwall, heavy rain flooded the railway between Liskeard and Looe, closing all lines until at least 19:00 GMT, National Rail Enquiries tweeted.

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for ice starting from 00:00 until 21:00 on Tuesday, affecting all of Cornwall and some of Devon on the Devon/Cornwall border.

People should travel with care and "watch out for icy patches on untreated roads, pavements and cycle paths", it said.

Severe weather led to disruption, cancelled football fixtures and road closures over the weekend.

A landslide that forced the closure of the A399 in Combe Martin was among incidents being investigated by highways teams.
