Flooding expected. Take action now.
Levels on the River Calder have risen rapidly as a result of persistent heavy rainfall overnight Tuesday 31 December 2024 into early morning Wednesday 01 January 2025.
Consequently, flooding of property remains possible until 13:00 this afternoon. Areas at risk include the Ship Inn and Steanard Lane.
Levels are expected to peak this morning at Mirfield and fall this afternoon and into this evening. Rainfall is expected to clear late morning and no further significant rainfall is forecast for the next couple of days.
