Flooding possible. Be prepared.
Considerable water remains on the Somerset Levels and Moors and rivers remain high. Upstream catchments are saturated and very responsive to rainfall. As such the risk of flooding continues. Areas most at risk include locations near the River Yeo and River Parrett, with low lying land and roads expected to be most affected, particularly around the A37 south and A303 south west of Ilchester, the Ilchester to Limington road, and the road to Ilchester Meads. There is also a risk of flooding at Hainbury Mill, Ilchester.
Thursday (12/02/26) will be a showery day. The outlook for Friday remains unsettled with further rain forecast. Saturday will be a predominantly dry day before unsettled conditions return on Sunday.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Field Teams are out clearing debris screens and checking rivers for blockages. Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. Don’t put yourself or others at risk. This message will be updated by 1PM on 13th February 2026 or as the situation changes.
