River Levels

Groundwater flooding in the Salisbury Plain area

Warning no longer in force

Groundwater levels are now returning to normal. 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.  
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.
