Whitwell, Wroxall, Langbridge, Alverstone on the Eastern Yar Warning no longer in force 4:10pm, Thursday 19th February

Warning no longer in force

The Flood Warning has now been removed. However, a Flood Alert remains in force for the wider area, so flooding of roads and low lying land is still possible.
Weather conditions are expected to improve and no further flooding is expected.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if necessary. A Flood Alert will remain in force for impacts to roads and land.
Stay away from floodwater - it contains hidden dangers such as open manhole covers, sewage and chemicals. Never drive through flood water, just 30cm of fast flowing water is enough to move your car.
