Four flood alerts in place around Shropshire as river levels continue to rise
Four flood alerts are in place today as river levels continue to rise around Shropshire.
A flood alert - the least severe of the Environment Agency's warnings - is issued when flooding is possible, and advises residents to make preparations.
Residents near the Tern and Perry catchments, Ledwyche Brook and River Rea, the Severn Vyrnwy confluence and the Upper Teme have been warned to "take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through floodwater" as river levels continue to rise.
The Met Office said more rain is expected across the West Midlands today (Saturday) but it is expected to ease off overnight.
Experts predict Sunday will be "widely dry and fine" with "plenty of sunny spells" but a breeze will make it feel chillier than recent days.
