Two Flood Warnings have been issued for River Weaver in Nantwich after a day of heavy rain yesterday.
Many riverside paths are cut off and the river has overflowed its banks through the town.

Both were issued this morning (October 17).
The Lakeside View warning says: “High river levels are expected to cause flooding from this morning, 17/10/2024.
