Flooding expected. Take action now.
Water levels in Saltmoor and Northmoor remain high today, Thursday 12 February. The drain level at Northmoor pumping station is 3.98m and at Northmoor Main Drain Remote is 4.61m and steady. The level in Currymoor is stable and still very high. Athelney spillway continues to run into Saltmoor and Northmoor. We are pumping at Northmoor and Saltmoor and have additional mobile pumps at both stations. Work has been undertaken to improve flow along Northmoor Main Drain to maximise pumping into the Parrett. The River Tone level remains too high to pump at Currymoor but will commence when levels allow.
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.
Catchments are saturated and rivers very responsive to rainfall. We are monitoring the situation and checking floodbanks and spillways. Remain aware of local water levels and weather conditions. This message will be updated by 1pm on 13/02/26 or as the situation changes.
