Flood alert for Lower Tame
Get flood warnings by phone, text or email
River levels are falling but remain high at the Hopwas Bridge river gauge as a result of rainfall and snowmelt. Consequently, the risk of flooding remains. We expect flooding to affect low-lying land and roads adjacent to the River Tame between Hopwas and the National Arborteum at Alrewas.
No further rainfall is forecast. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are actively checking river levels and the weather forecast. Please avoid using low lying footpaths and bridges near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
This message will be updated by 11:00 on Thursday, 09/01/2025, or as the situation changes.
Flood alert area: Low-lying land and roads between Hopwas and the National Arboretum near Alrewas.
