Flood warning

Property flooding is expected.
River levels are rising on the River Coln as a result of heavy rain overnight. Therefore, flooding of property is possible overnight 27/12/20, especially in the Fairford and Lechlade on Thames areas.
Scattered showers are forecast over the next 24 hours. We expect river levels to peak overnight, then fall, but levels may respond to further forecast rain over the next few days.
We are closely monitoring the situation.
Please remain safe and aware of your local surroundings, avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses, and refer to the 'River and Sea levels in England' webpage for current river levels.
This message will be updated tomorrow morning, 28/12/20, or as the situation changes.
