Flooding possible. Be prepared.
River levels remain high on parts of the River Thame. Therefore flooding of low lying land and roads remains possible today (23.01.26), especially in the Aylesbury, Thame, Stadhampton, and Dorchester areas. Further bands of rain are expected this morning (23.01.26), followed by showers and then another band this evening. River levels are expected to remain high over the coming days.
We are monitoring rainfall and river levels. Avoid low lying footpaths and roads near rivers, which may be flooded. Go to River levels online for updates on current river levels.
This message will be updated by 12:00 pm on 24 January 2026 or as the situation changes.
