Flooding possible. Be prepared.
High groundwater levels may lead to flooding.
Flooding is possible . Mostly light rain (21mm) has fallen in the last week.
Groundwater levels are currently slowly falling. Flooding is affecting Springvale Road in Kings Worthy. In Martyr Worthy, Chilland and Easton, drainage ditches and culverts are full and less effective as natural flow paths are restricted. Some properties may be affected as water seeps up through floors. Footpaths near the river may be inaccessible. Dry weather is forecast until Wednesday 25/02/2026. On Thursday 26/02/2026 and Friday 27/02/2026, between 15 and 25mm of rain is forecast. If heavy rain affects the area, levels may rise again, and cellar flooding in Littleton could occur next week.
We are closely monitoring the situation .
Residents are advised to prepare property resilience measures and ensure that pumps are working where they have been installed .
This message will be updated by 6:00PM on 02 March 2026 or as the situation changes.
