Flood alert

High river levels and occasional heavy showers over the next few days may lead to flooding. Flooding is possible from Thursday into the weekend. Catchments are saturated and river levels will remain high. Forecast levels may cause flooding to low lying land and roads close to the rivers, although no flooding to properties is currently forecast. The main areas of concern are Crediton, Newton St Cyres and Upton Hellions. We are closely monitoring the situation. Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. This message will be updated by 3:30PM on 23 January 2026 or as the situation changes.
