Residents in flood-ravaged villages across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire have been told to expect more heavy rain with forecasters warning there could be a danger to life.

The Environment Agency has warned people to "remain vigilant" as more downpours are expected over the next few day in areas already affected by flooding.

A yellow weather warning was issued for the saturated region, which has seen hundreds of people forced to leave their houses.

The Met Office said the warning for rain across the north meant fast flowing or deep floodwater was possible, "causing a danger to life".
