Flooding expected. Take action now.
River levels are falling but remain high at the Mordiford and Ross on Wye river gauges following heavy rainfall. Consequently, flooding of property, roads and farmland continues. We expect flooding to affect properties and roads in and around Hereford and Ross on Wye.
Observed peaks:-
Mordiford at 5.05m Sunday, 08/12/2024
Ross on Wye at 4.56 Monday morning, 09/12/2024.
No significant rainfall is forecast for the next few days. River levels are now falling but will remain high for several days.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising with emergency services and Local Authorities.
Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded and move possessions and valuables off the ground or to safety.
This message will be updated by 18:00 Tuesday, 10/12/2024, or as the situation changes.
