The Western Rother is high at Fittleworth. Flood water will continue to be close to Fittleworth Mill. Only isolated showers are forecast Thursday. River levels are unlikely to rise significantly. Friday's weather is uncertain. Rain is currently forecast from mid morning. If as much rain falls as predicted, river levels in Fittleworth could rise a small amount. Less rain is predicted on Saturday, which should allow the Western Rother to stabilise. However more widespread rain forecast on Sunday. Minor flood impacts could again affect isolated mill properties at Fittleworth. Unsettled weather could continue throughout February. Consider activating any flood protection products you may have in Fittleworth. This message will be updated by 20:00 13/02/2026.
