Following nearly a month’s rainfall over the past week, and 20mm Thursday night, river levels are still very high on the River Ouse. Flood impacts will likely continue until Sunday 22/12/2019. Locations to be affected will include Slaugham Place, Brantridge Lane and fields, rural roads in Ardingly, as well as Ardingly Shell Brook cottages. A small amount of rain in the early hours of Saturday will be followed by more widespread rain between 17:00 Saturday 21/12/2019, and 08:00 Sunday 22/12/2019. While river levels may fall slightly Friday night and Saturday morning, by Sunday (22/12/2019) river levels will return to heights similar to those experienced on Friday, if not higher. Please keep flood protection products installed, if you have them. We are monitoring levels and forecasts. We will update this message by 17:00 21/12/2019.
