There are reports of flooding on the roads in West Somerset and an amber weather warning has been issued by the met office.

The road between Blue Anchor and Carhampton is reported to be flooding quite badly, as is the road between Minehead and Porlock.

The rain will be heavy most of the day with strong winds, which should ease off this evening but drivers are urged to be careful.

The amber weather warning states: "As this rain will be falling on near saturated ground, please be prepared for the risk of localised flooding and some disruption to travel."
