Property flooding is not currently expected. River levels are high but falling along much of the River Ray following persistent rainfall last week. Therefore, flooding of low lying roads, paths and farmland is expected to continue over the coming days, especially between Lower Arncott and Islip areas. The forecast is for rain overnight (19/01/21) and through tomorrow, which may be heavy at times. Unsettled conditions are expected over the next few days. Levels are expected to remain high over the coming days, and rise again later this week in response to forecast rain. We are closely monitoring the situation and have been in the area clearing weed/trash screens and checking structures. 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, 20/01/21, or as the situation changes.
