Flooding possible. Be prepared.
Groundwater levels have responded to the recent rainfall across the area and have risen at our observation borehole in Bray in the Egham area. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and have now reached a level where communities may be affected within the next few days by flooding from groundwater.
We expect levels to remain high but steady over the coming days in response to rainfall forecast across the area. Low-lying land and roads will therefore be at risk of flooding. Due to the nature of groundwater behaviour, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer.
We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message tomorrow, 05/02/2021 or as the situation changes.
