Pop down and have a look at the River Ancholme this morning, as many people are doing. A number won't have seen the water level as high as this before.
There's been fairly extensive flooding of the field behind Brigg Motor Springs on Bridge Street, the leisure centre car park and the old sugar factory sportsground.
Last night's heavy rain has obviously added to the problems of the past week.
Despite clear skies and the sun being out this morning, water takes some time to feed its way into the river system from sodden farmland.
One of the tributaries of the Ancholme has overflowed at Castlethorpe, flooding the road between the hamlet and Broughton.
