In Ross-on-Wye, the town's Morrisons supermarket closed its doors as the heavy rain found its way into the building, bringing down ceiling panels as water poured into the aisles.

Roads across the town were also closed as flash flooding hit. The town has over recent months suffered with frequent flooding issues when heavy rain hits.
