Flood alert for East and West Fens
Get flood warnings by phone, text or email
Over the last 48 hours we have seen heavy rainfall in the East and West Fens catchment area. This means that the watercourses have risen, leading to flooding of low-lying land and roads close to the river. No further rain is forecast for the next few days, however we expect the river to remain high and flooding to gardens, driveways or outhouses is possible close to the river. Our forecasts indicate that flooding inside properties isn't likely and therefore flood warnings are not expected to be issued. We are constantly monitoring river levels and have staff in the field checking for blockages and clearing weedscreens. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded. This message will be updated online and on FloodLine on 08/01/25, or before if the situation changes.
Flood alert area: East and West Fen Catchwaters plus the Stonebridge Drain to the north of Boston.
