Flooding expected. Take action now.
Levels at West Holme Washlands rose throughout yesterday and today, 22/02/22, as a result of the persistent, heavy rainfall from Sunday, passing down the River Aire. Water levels are very high and at a level where there is a risk of property flooding to locations nearest the washlands throughout today. Though we expect levels in the washlands to remain high for some time, we do not expect significant increases in the levels. The weather outlook is not showing significant rainfall here, or higher up the catchment, over the next couple of days. We expect levels to begin falling later this evening and overnight, into tomorrow, 23/02/2022. We are continuing to closely monitor the situation. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and please put your flood plan into action. This message will be updated by 01:15, 23/02/2022, or as the situation changes.
