Flooding possible. Be prepared.
River levels are high on parts of the River Thames and its tributaries from Calcutt to Lechlade. Flooding of low lying land and roads is expected to continue today, 12 February 2026, especially in the Kempsford area. Further rain is forecast over the next 24 hours, which has the potential to be heavy at times. We expect river levels to remain high over the coming days and may rise again in response to further rainfall.
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 12:00PM on the 13 February 2026, or as the situation changes.
