Local residents are being warned by the Met Office to expect more stormy weather today and over the weekend.
An amber weather warning has been issued by the weather forecaster, with more heavy rain and strong winds expected to cause more localised flooding and potential damage.
The Met Office are warning that the “public should be prepared for disruption to transport and locally to power supplies, particularly when combined with the impacts of heavy rainfall”.
This weather follows on from the past few weeks worth bad weather experienced across the country, with the majority of the South West affected.
The local area has been issued with an amber weather warning for rain and wind for today, Saturday and Sunday, with flooding and surface water being the main issue.
The Met Office’s chief forecaster said: “A further Atlantic frontal system will bring a band of rain quickly eastwards during Friday night and early Saturday, with the heaviest rain again likely to be across parts of southern England, followed in turn by heavy showers.
“Another 10-20 mm of rain and locally 30 mm will fall in the Amber area, leading to further flooding. Winds will also be a feature during Friday night and Saturday with severe gales possible around coasts in the south and southwest of England.
