Flooding expected. Take action now.
The River Arun is high and rising near Pulborough, following Thursday's rain. Flood water could affect properties at Pallingham Lock from 10:00 05/01/2024. The river could also affect the A272 Newbridge road near Billingshurst. Flood water will continue to affect isolated mill properties, fields and roads between Broadbridge Heath and Loxwood, but river levels here are now slowly falling. Very little rain is forecast for the next five days. The river should begin to fall by 20:00 05/01/2024 near Pallingham Quay, where minor flood impacts could remain through the weekend. The river should return nearer to normal by Saturday near to Broadbridge Heath, but not until next week nearer Pulborough. Flood protection products are recommended to be installed in Wanford, if you have them. Our automatic sluice at Wanford is open as far as possible to help reduce the risk of flooding. We will update this message by 17:00 06/01/2024.
