Lower Bullingham Lane notoriously gets flooded whenever there is heavy rain. 

On December 4, a woman had to be rescued from her car after it got stranded. 

Two fire engines were sent, with a cordon in place to close the road.

Later that month, the other end of Lower Bullingham Lane was flooded. Resident, Alex Finley spoke about the issue in light of plans to build 540 homes in the area.

"As well as putting the right stuff in place, they also have to think of how it is going to affect the people around them," he said.

The rain today follows snows that fell in the county, leading to treacherous conditions on some roads.

It is forecast to freeze overnight, with tomorrow (Sunday) being a dry day.
