📢 Please take a minute to read this personal message from the creator of River Levels UK
Groundwater levels are falling. We do not expect further flooding and the flood alert has been removed.
Rivers and streams remain full due to high groundwater levels and will react rapidly to further rainfall. Residual flooding impacts will reduce over the coming week.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if necessary.
Septic tanks may need emptying as soakaways may not work for some time. You are advised to take the opportunity to check any pumps are in good working order and that stocks of sandbags are replenished.
