Flooding expected. Take action now.
Heavy rain has fallen in the Welland catchment over the past few days. This is causing the River Welland to rise and is forecast to continue to rise through the night. Low lying areas near to the River Welland are already flooded and we now expect properties in Deeping St James to be affected this evening onwards. No significant further rainfall is forecast, however river levels are expected to remain high. Remain safe and be aware of your local surroundings. Please avoid contact with flood water. Our staff are out in the area to check the flood defences, clear blockages, and assist the emergency services and council. We will be closely monitoring the situation and this message will be updated online and on FloodLine by 16:00 on 04/01/24, or before if the situation changes.
