Severe flood warnings downgraded in Suffolk and Essex

Five severe flood warnings – which warn of a danger to life – remain in place for coastal areas towards the north of Suffolk tonight and in the early hours of tomorrow morning. But other severe flood warnings issued yesterday for further south down the coast -such as Ipswich and Felixstowe – have been downgraded to flood warnings, in which there is no danger to life but “immediate action” is still required.
