Behind the scenes at floods control room
Here's a peak behind the scenes in the control room at Evesham's fire station, where the emergency services and the Environment Agency are planning their response to the flooding... fuelled by biscuits donated by a local supermarket.
As well as rescues, monitoring river levels and putting up flood defences, they've been talking to people in affected homes and businesses - and the police and fire service have been out to visit some of those most vulnerable.

Once the river has peaked, the Environment Agency said it was expected to remain high for a number of days.

Flood barriers are up and properties around the Greyfriars Bridge, which are at higher risk, are being monitored, the fire service says.
Area Commander Mark Preece said: “Surface water flooding on the highways has closed more than 100 roads in Worcestershire and many in Herefordshire and is expected to remain a problem over the weekend."
Events cancelled due to floods
These are just another couple of events that have been called off this weekend due to the flooding.
Although flood levels are expected to fall over the next 24 hours we're being warned that roads and footpaths will remain dangerous.
The Environment Agency said roads would be dangerous because of mud and gravel left behind and footpaths near rivers will be slippery, even when the water has gone.

Homes and businesses that have been flooded could be contaminated by oil, silt and sewage and the Environment Agency has advice on how to safely clean up afterwards.

The Environment Agency has a flood alert in place for the town and said there was some flooding affecting farmland and the area around the River Stour.

Floodwater being washed into homes
The old bridge in Clun is closed, because of the high river levels, but people have been moving the signs and vehicles are still driving over it.
People living nearby have complained that means floodwater is being washed into their homes.

More than 100 people rescued from cars and properties
A fire chief in Worcestershire said has said the force has had a "very busy" 24 hours.
Group commander George Marshall from Hereford and Worcester Fire and Rescue Service said crews had rescued more than 100 people, "predominantly from cars but others from properties".

"We all feel a bit silly when these things happen but mistakes do happen and we fully understand that, and ultimately they're the ones that have got to pick up the bill.
"The message from the fire service is please don't drive into floodwater, but if you do we're there to rescue you.
"We had to over-staff our control room in order to deal with the volume of calls."
"Surface water is now feeding into rivers which are now overflowing, and we're getting more flooding into properties."

People reminded not to park in flooded car park
People are being reminded not to park in Worcester's Pitchford car park.
It looks like that should be obvious, because it's under water, but Worcester City Council isn't taking any chances and is pointing out the River Severn isn't expected to peak there until the weekend.

'I've got barriers and pumps, my nerves are just on edge'
Water has reached Waterside in Evesham, threatening nearby homes.
One resident, who has lived here for eight years, told me this is the second time in two weeks the nearby land has flooded.

"I've got pumps and I've got barriers, but I think that maybe more could be done to prevent the river flooding, like dredging, but I don't know if that's possible," they said.
"I am fully defended, I've got barriers," she added, "it's just my nerves are a bit on edge today."
