Throop fishery the river Stour in Dorset under water in Floods. Worst flooding in year winter 2014 sees the Uk's rivers burst their banks. Roads across Bournemouth and Poole are under water as flood water peaks after the weekend's heavy rain. The River Frome at Wool is higher than it's been in 20 years according to BBC Radio Solent. A new weather warning has been issued for the rest of the day, with North Dorset no longer in danger but Bournemouth and Poole forecast another 10-20mm of rain.
