A number of roads across the county have been closed due to flooding.
By lunchtime on Christmas Eve road closures were as follows:
-A617 between Kelham and Newark
-Fiskerton Road at Hams Bridge near Bleasby
-Moor Road, Bestwood
-Station Road, Rolleston
-Trentside, Gunthorpe
Temporary traffic lights are also in place on the A614 Rufford Road as only part of the carriageway is passable.
Notts County Council said the road closures would remain in place for the next few days while waters subside and debris is removed.
Diversions are in place where possible. Motorists are advised to take extra care and not to attempt to use a closed road.
Rob Fisher, Group Manager for Emergency Management at Nottinghamshire County Council said, "We sympathise with residents and businesses affected, but decisions to close roads or facilities are never taken lightly and are always taken in the interests of public safety.
"We are urging all members of the public not to attempt to drive through roads or access facilities which we have closed to ensure their safety. Flooding can take more than 24 hours to subside and any closed roads must be inspected for debris and properly cleared before they can re-open."
The Environment Agency offers a Flood Warning Service Flood by area which is available by calling 0845 988 1188 or by visiting its website.
