Severe flooding expected. Take action immediately.

River levels are rising rapidly due to heavy rainfall, associated with Storm Ciara. heavy showers are expected to continue through Sunday afternoon 09/02/2020. The river Nidd is forecast to begin overtopping flood defences in Pateley Bridge at about 12:30 this afternoon. The river level is forecast to peak at 5.1m at 2pm on Sunday. This will lead to significant overtopping and may pose a danger to life. There may be fast flowing water where defences are overtopped.

Our Incident Room is open, and operational staff are out clearing trash screens. We will update this message in 8 hours or as the situation changes.
