Flood alert

Property flooding is not currently expected.
River levels are high but stabilising and starting to fall on the River Ray following recent heavy rainfall. Therefore, flooding of low lying land and roads is expected to continue today, 13/10/24, especially in the Lower Arncott and Islip areas. Sunday should be mostly dry with rain forecast overnight into Monday morning. River levels are expected to remain high over the next few days and will be sensitive to further rainfall.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses. Go to the 'River and Sea levels in England' webpage for current river levels. This message will be updated by tomorrow morning, 14/10/24, or as the situation changes.
