Flooding possible. Be prepared.
High river levels on Thursday may lead to flooding.
Flooding is possible on 19 February 2026 from 07:00, as a lot of rain (nearly 35 mm) fell yesterday.
Flooding could affect Privett Road. It will also affect footpaths at Alver Country Park, especially near to Apple Dumpling Bridge. High tide is at 12:27 this afternoon, and for a period over high water, the incoming tide will prevent the river from flowing out to sea. River levels and flood risk should begin to reduce this afternoon. Only isolated showers are forecast over the next 3 days.
We are closely monitoring the situation and our operations staff will clear the outfall today.
Avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded . Including Privett Road.
This message will be updated by 6:00PM on 19 February 2026 or as the situation changes.
