Flood warning

Property flooding is expected.
River levels are rising rapidly on the Wendlebury Brook as a result of heavy rainfall. Therefore, flooding of property is possible in the next 1-2 hours, especially in areas closest to the river in Wendlebury. Peak levels are expected to be similar to the flooding in July 2012.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next 12 hours. We expect river levels to rise rapidly before stabilising and starting to drop in the next few hours.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff have been in the area clearing weed/trash screens.
Please avoid contact with flood water and refer to the 'River and Sea levels in England' webpage for current river levels.
This message will be updated tomorrow morning, 24/12/20, or as the situation changes.
