As the clean-up operation continues in Somerset and Devon, meteorologists have warned of more wet weather to come.

According to the Met Office, parts of Devon will experience heavy showers - although Somerset should see less rain.

Byron Chalcraft, national forecaster at the Met Office, said: "There is a likelihood of some scattered heavy showers developing again.

"I don't think the Somerset area will be affected too badly but we do have some parts with localised flooding in south and east Devon that could be affected again."

Firefighters evacuated homes in the worst-hit areas during Thursday night's torrential downpour.

At the storm's peak, Devon and Somerset Fire Brigade was taking calls "every few seconds" from worried residents, with more than 350 emergency calls received in just two-and-a-half hours.

Hundreds of people woke up to flood-damaged homes, and the Met Office issued a new severe weather warning for heavy showers.

Mr Chalcraft said the risk of flooding is less than it had been on Thursday or Friday.

He explained that the heavy rain had been caused by a combination of low pressure and warmer weather, saying: "We have got relatively low pressure across the country.
