📢 Please take a minute to read this personal message from the creator of River Levels UK
There is no longer a threat of flooding, though standing water and debris may still remain.
Weather conditions are expected to improve and no further flooding is expected. River levels have peaked and will remain high but steady until dam reopens. There is little rain forecast for the next 2 days.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if necessary. We will continue to operate the Milford Dam.
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.
