Flood Warning

River levels at North Swaith Dike continue to fall and the immediate risk has passed. Today’s scattered showers today, 12/11/19, have largely passed through and we do not currently expect any further significant effects overnight.

Looking ahead we are expecting a band of rain to move across the catchments broadly from the East on Thursday night. This will be locally heavy, particularly for high ground exposed to the South and South-East. Given the wet condition of the catchment, we expect to see the rivers respond, and our response staff are closely monitoring the forecast. We are supporting the coordinated multi‐agency response in the area and our incident room is open.

Please avoid contact with floodwater and plan journeys to avoid low-lying roads. See GOV.UK for a 5 day flood forecast.
To report any flood impacts please call 0800 80 70 60.

This message will be updated by 04:45 on 13/11/2019 or as the situation changes.
