Flooding expected. Take action now.
Following prolonged rainfall overnight, 30-40mm of rain has fallen on the Tamar catchment , and rising river levels are increasing the risk of flooding.
We are expecting river levels to continue to rise throughout Saturday morning and remain high over the course of the day. Property flooding is possible in Bridgerule from midday today and throughout the afternoon. Highway flooding is also expected on the A3071 between Holsworthy and Red Post and also between North Tamerton and Clawton.
The rainfall is clearing from midday today giving rise to drier conditions and we expect river levels to gradually fall over this evening.
We are constantly monitoring river levels and have operatives in the field to relay information, clear blockages and operate defences if required. We will update this Flood Warning by 5pm this evening or earlier if the situation changes.
