Part of a major Watford road remains closed over a day later after Watford and surrounding areas were hit by torrential downpours.
The A41 is still shut this morning (September 24) at the A405 Leavesden underpass due to flooding following the yellow weather warning for rain across most of England and Wales yesterday.
Traffic is still flowing smoothly on the roundabout around the closure, according to Google Maps.
There are also reports of flooding in Chenies Road near Chorleywood, according to Hertfordshire County Council, although earlier rush hour congestion on the nearby A404 has now cleared.
- Parts of Cassiobury Park submerged after heavy downpours
- Transport disruption after heavy rain flooding overnight - recap
Residents in Kings Langley, Croxley Green and Hunton Bridge had been warned that flooding was possible around the River Gade but this has now been lifted.

Train services to London Euston and St Albans are also now running as normal after they were hit by cancellations and disruption.
The downpours overnight and into yesterday morning caused major disruption around the town, including shutting the A41 between Hartspring Lane and Sandy Lane until yesterday afternoon.
It is not clear if the flood waters have cleared from Cassiobury Park or other affected roads.
