Flood warning

River levels have risen at the Gloucester river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall coinciding with a period of high tides. Consequently, flooding of property, roads & farmland is expected to continue.
We expect flooding to affect properties and roads in and around Hempsted as well as access to Rea Lane.
Predicted Peaks:-
Gloucester, 3.8m to 4.2m tonight at midnight, 12am on Wednesday 14/02/24, & 3.8m to 4.2m at 12:15pm on Wednesday 14/02/24.
Some further rainfall is forecast over the next 48 hours, but tides are receding. We expect river levels to remain high over the next few days.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising the Local Authorities.
Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
This message will be updated by 2pm on Wednesday 14/02/24, or as the situation changes.
