Numerous Wiltshire roads are closed as Storm Herminia brings heavy rain to the UK.

The Met Office issued two yellow weather warnings for the south of the country for this morning (Monday) – just 24 hours after Storm Éowyn.

Significant rainfall and strong winds in Wiltshire has led to a number of roads being closed – either due to severe flooding or fallen trees and debris.

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service has issued advice on what to do when travelling through areas affected by severe flooding.

ROAD CLOSURES

“Do not drive through floodwater.
