Heavy floods block streets in North Yorkshire
Floods
Water flooded on every nook and corner, passengers were trapped in cars and other vehicles that caught up in between the water.
Rains poured down heavily for four hours straight which resulted in massive water storage on the streets.
Rescue teams were finding it difficult to reach the victims who were trapped near Askwith due to the bad weather.
In the meanwhile locals took the responsibility upon them and helped the victims out of their vehicles and moved them to much safer place.
The continuous pouring is making it really difficult to lend help for all the victims but rescue teams are doing their best to keep everyone out of trouble.
No lose of life has yet been reported but worse is yet to come with the storm picking up over the ocean.
