Property flooding is not currently expected. River levels are high but falling on the River Ray as a result of recent rainfall. Therefore, flooding of roads and farmland is expected to continue overnight tonight (13/10/19). Following a drier night, further light rainfall is forecast tomorrow morning (14/10/19) followed by sustained and potentially heavy rainfall tomorrow afternoon and evening (14/10/19). We expect river levels to remain high overnight and tomorrow (14/10/19) in response to forecast rainfall. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are in the area clearing trash screens. Please remain safe and aware of your local surroundings and refer to the 'River and Sea levels in England' webpage for current river levels. This message will be updated tomorrow morning (14/10/19), or as the situation changes.
