As heavy rain sweeps across Greater Manchester the Met Office has issued warnings indicating when the named storm is likely to hit. Yellow and amber warnings are in place over the weekend, with Thursday evening seeing the region battered by heavy rain.
Thursday evening saw widespread travel disruption across the region due to heavy rain and strong winds. The poor weather conditions saw some roads submerged in parts of Rossendale. Flood alerts are currently in place, including along a long stretch of the River Irwell as it moves through Bury and Radcliffe.
