The Ouse in York burst its banks yesterday following another day of rain, while rivers in Leeds came close.

Some of those warnings put in place by officials have now passed, with river levels returning to somewhere close to normal in places around the county.

But the Environment Agency are still warning of the potential of some stretches of water after heavy rain hit on Tuesday.

Here is a list of the warnings in and around Yorkshire:

Flood alerts are less severe than warnings. They tell people that flooding is possible, and to be aware, while warnings urge people to take immediate action as flooding is expected.
