Flooding continues.
Areas most at risk are Derby Racecourse Park, and surrounding areas of Chaddesden, including Meteor Centre Park, and Ride.
Further light rainfall is forecast over the next 36 hours, however river levels continue to rise due to rainfall traveling from the upper Derwent. We expect river levels to remain high until 23/10/23.
