flood warnings have been issued for Tuesday as rivers have burst their banks.An evacuation advisory was issued by the Environment Agency for residents in the village of Ironbridge, Shropshire yesterday (February 21) as levels on the River Severn rose dramatically in just a matter of hours.All trains out of Rotherham were cancelled after the River Don began to flow into the railway tracks, while homes in York and Tadcaster were also flooded.It comes as Storm Franklin became the third storm in a week to cause widespread damage to property and major transport disruption after Storm Dudley and the deadly Storm Eunice.More than 280 flood warnings and alerts remain in place across the country this morning as water heavy and sustained rainfall over the weekend continues to seep into rivers and streams, causing a delayed rise in river levels.Two of those warnings are "severe", warning of "danger to life" on the River Severn at both Wharfage, Ironbridge and Wribbenhall, Bewdley.
