The warning comes as four flood alerts are in place in the following locations:
- River Cole
- River Kennet and its tributaries from Berwick Bassett down to Newbury
- Somerset coast at Porlock Weir
- Tidal Thames riverside from Putney Bridge to Teddington Weir
The warning comes hours after flash flooding and high winds battered parts of Essex and East London, with some saying a ‘tornado’ hit Barking and Dagenham.
Barking and Dagenham Police posted on Twitter: “There are no reports of any casualties. Officers are liaising with the local authority to ensure support is available to anyone affected by damage to property.”
Dagenham Council also tweeted: “We’re aware of the severe weather damage in the Barking area and our Immediate Response team along with the police and fire brigade are on hand sorting any issues.”
