Flooding is expected in Potter Heigham, Wroxham and Ferry Road in Horning due to high water levels this afternoon.

Areas along the River Yare between Thorpe St Andrew and Great Yarmouth are also under alert.

High water levels may last for a few days, until the high tides at Great Yarmouth have passed.

Heavy rainfall on Wednesday will also affect water levels.

Waterside roads and footpaths are most likely to be affected.
