Natural Resources Wales have issued flood alerts for parts of Newport that are situated next to the River Usk.

Those living in Caerleon, Newport city centre, Spytty, Lliswerry and Newbridge on Usk have been advised to expect flooding.

"There is a risk of flooding as a result of the combination of the high tides and weather conditions between the evening high tide on the evening high tide on Sunday 20th October," said a spokesperson for Natural Resources Wales.

"Flooding of low-lying land and roads is expected. Be careful on coastal footpaths, roads, low lying land, close to the estuary. We will continue to monitor the situation."

Just days ago, on October 17, Monmouth's River Wye and Monow River flooded, leaving residents trapped inside their homes.
