The flood forecast has changed significantly. As a result, there is no longer a risk of flooding in the area.
Further rainfall is forecast but no further flooding is expected. Light rain and showers are forecast for today, Thursday 19 Feb and may continue into the weekend. We do not expect this to result in flooding.
We will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if necessary.
Continue to take care on waterside roads and footpaths and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger. Never drive through flood water, just 30cm of fast flowing water is enough to move your car.
