Flood warning

River levels are rising at the Flint Mill Cheddleton river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall and snowmelt. Consequently, flooding of property is possible on Monday morning.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next 4 hours so we expect levels to rise further still.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are actively checking river levels and the weather forecast.
Please avoid contact with flood water and activate any property flood protection products you may have, such as flood barriers and air brick covers. Call 999 if in immediate danger.
