People in parts of North Yorkshire which were affected by flash floods are being warned more severe weather is on its way.

Storms are expected to hit the region this weekend.

Letters giving people advice on what to do have been hand-delivered to homes and businesses in a bid to help villagers prepare for the worst.

It comes as forecasters predict yet more thundery storms and torrential downpours on Friday and Saturday.

Last Sunday a month's rain fell within a few hours causing widespread floods.

Anyone needing sandbags are being urged to contact their district council for help.
