River Cherwell for the Oxford area Warning no longer in force 6:25pm, Saturday 6th January 2024

Warning no longer in force

This Flood Warning has been removed.
River levels have now fallen below the flood risk threshold. The flood warning for the area has now been removed. However, a flood alert remains in force for the wider area, so flooding may still affect roads and low lying land. Tonight and tomorrow are forecast to be mainly dry. Levels are expected to continue falling over the coming days, but will remain sensitive to further rainfall.
We will continue to monitor the forecast and re-issue this warning if necessary.
Please remain safe and aware of your local surroundings and refer to the 'River and Sea levels in England' webpage for current river levels.
