Flooding expected. Take action now.
High river levels on the River Thames may cause flooding.
River levels are currently slowly falling on the River Thames at Purley. Flooding of property and roads remains possible, especially nearest the River Thames in the Purley area. Further rain is forecast this evening and overnight, which has the potential to be heavy at times. We expect river levels to remain high over the coming days, and may rise again as as water moves downstream.
We are closely monitoring the situation.
Activate any flood protection products you may have. Go to River levels online for updates on current river levels. Stay away from flood water - it contains hidden dangers such as open man hole covers, sewage and chemicals.
This message will be updated by 11:00AM on 13 Feb 2026 , or as the situation changes.
