Flood warning

River levels are rising at the Minsterworth river gauge as a result of a tidal surge. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is possible between 10:15am and 10:45am today, 12/03/24. We expect flooding to affect properties in the area Lower Rea to Stonebench. Floodwater may overtop tidal defences in the Noards and Walmore Common areas and affect land and properties behind. Wave action may result in some overtopping of the tidal defence at Minsterworth for the period of the high tide. Predicted peak:- Minsterworth 6.0m to 6.2m 10:30am 12/03/24
We expect river levels to remain high until after the high tide at 10:30am on 12/03/24 at Minsterworth..
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are checking defences.
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 12/03/24, or as the situation changes.
