Property flooding is not currently expected. River levels remain high, but are falling slowly, on the Winterbourne Stream and the River Lambourn due to high groundwater levels.

The beginning of the week is expected to be mainly dry, with some bands of rain and isolated showers possible towards the end of the week. River levels are expected to remain high over the coming days. Levels will be sensitive to further rainfall.
