A flood warning for Packington was removed this morning in the wake of Storm Barbet.

The warning had been issued for the Gilwiskaw Brook at Packington, including Mill Street and Brook Close.

But it was removed this morning (Saturday) as the rain began to ease.

However, the Gov.Uk website said that other parts of the area around Ashby remained at risk.

It highlighted the River Mease region and that people should still be prepared.

The website said: "Flooding is possible in this area.

"Monitor local water levels and weather conditions.

"Avoid using low lying footpaths or entering areas prone to flooding.
