Flooding possible. Be prepared.
High river levels on Sunday may lead to flooding. Flooding is possible on 22/02/2026, as further rain is forecast on Sunday (up to 18mm). If heavy rain affects the River Blackwater, flooding could affect land, fields, and roads at Cadnam, West Wellow, Landford and Ower. Water levels will also be very high around, and affect, the mill building at East Wellow. River levels and flood risk should begin to reduce by Monday 23/02/2026. From Monday 23/02/26 to Wednesday 25/02/2026, minimal rain is forecast each day (up to 1mm). This will give the river a chance to recover. We are monitoring rainfall and river levels and will ensure the river is kept free of reported blockages. Consider activating any flood protection products you may have, including pumps. This message will be updated by 18:00 on 23/02/2026.
