A FLOOD alert has been put in place for a river in Worcestershire as more rain is predicted.
The Gov.uk website warned residents of flooding in parts of Worcestershire after it revealed there is a risk of the River Avon bursting its banks.
The flood alert has been put in place today (Wednesday).
The website reads: "River levels have risen at the Evesham river gauge due to heavy rainfall.
"Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is possible today.
"We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads adjacent the River Avon from Abbotts Salford to Tewkesbury.
"Other locations that may be affected include Offenham, Evesham, Twyning and the Eckington Road.
"We expect river levels to remain high in the coming days."
