Flooding possible. Be prepared.
Groundwater levels are high but slowly falling at the Water Acre borehole in the Aldbourne Valley. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year but are no longer are at a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding. The catchment remains sensitive to further rainfall due to saturated ground and high groundwater levels. Low-lying land, gardens, roads, and cellars may therefore continue to be at risk of flooding. Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week by 26/03/2024, or as the situation changes.
