Flooding expected. Take action now.
The water level in the River Blackwater at Wellow and Ower is high and rising. In the last 24 hours, 19.4mm of rainfall has been recorded in Romsey. This total, whilst not that large, has simply added to a river which is already high as a result of rainfall recorded over the last few days. Over the next 12 - 24 hours, more significant out of bank flooding will affect land and roads from at West Wellow, Landford and Ower. 11:30 this morning, Monday (24/02/2024), the river will be high enough to flood the Mill at East Wellow. Rain has now cleared the area. The river will peak at around 14:00 this afternoon (24/02/2025). Our operations staff are ensuring the River Blackwater is kept free of blockages. We continue to monitor the forecast. Please take appropriate action to protect property and ensure pumps used to lower water levels are operating. This Flood Warning will be updated by 10:00 on 25/02/2025.
