Torrential rain has caused flash floods across Merseyside, leading to major disruption for residents.



The Met Office said 14mm (0.5in) of rain fell in one hour in Liverpool. More rain is expected overnight.



Many main roads in Liverpool have flooded. Several had to be closed, including Aigburth Road, Queen's Drive and East Prescot Road.



It's been raining virtually constantly since 11ish this morning”



Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service said it had received about 150 calls from 1300 BST to 1630 BST.



A police spokesman said they had been called to numerous incidents over the course of the afternoon and evening.



Several residents were evacuated from their homes in the Knowsley Road area of Bootle and taken to a local church hall.

Here in Southport it did rain for most of the day but we did not experience any flooding.



The Liverpool areas were badly hit but are getting back to normal now and you know Hippo an awful lot of those people will help each other when the chips are down. Not all Liverpudlians deserve the tag they seem to be given and the majority will help each other when needs must.

The young ones can be trouble but then these days so can most when they are on the booze no matter where they are from.
