Several flood alerts were issued for Cumbria as a second bout of heavy rain hit the county this month.

Unprecedented rainfall in August in Cumbria led to a flood warning remaining in place at Keswick Campsite, a commonly flooded area of the county.

Footage captured the extent of the flooding at the campsite on August 24.

Much of the rest of Cumbria was subject to several flood alerts, which means that flooding is possible as opposed to a flood warning which means that flooding is likely.

River and lake levels in the area were forecast to remain high due to expected rainfall throughout the morning yesterday (August 27).

A band of heavy rain was forecast to cross Cumbria throughout yesterday morning, bringing up to approximately 65mm of rain in the upland area.

Flooding was then forecast to affect locations near the Upper River Derwent, Stonethwaite Beck and Derwent Water.

Later, a video emerged showing the extent of flooding at Fell Foot which had to be closed.

Later yesterday afternoon, a flood warning was put in place for much of Egremont and surrounding areas, namely near the River Ehen.
