Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

Between 15 and 30mm of rain is forecast through the early hours of Wednesday 27/11/2024. There remains uncertainty, but if as much rain falls as predicted, flooding could be possible. From 01:00 on 27/11/2024, minor flooding could affect Lake Lane and Barnham Road, Barnham. From 08:00 on 27/11/2024, flood water could also affect land around caravans at Riverside Caravan Centre, parts of the Tescos on Shripney Road, and fields near Shripney Lane and the A259. Almost no rainfall is predicted for Wednesday afternoon, through to the weekend. The Barnham Rife should begin to fall by 12:00 on 27/11/2024, and should return to normal by 17:00 on 27/11/2024. In Bersted, the Aldingbourne Rife might not begin to fall until 21:00 on 27/11/2024. River levels should end up a little higher than following Storm Bert. Flood protection products are recommended to be installed in Barnham, if you have them. We are clearing grilles through Barnham, including at the Trading Post, and our pumps at Felpham are running to reduce flood risk. We will update this message by 18:00 on 27/11/2024.
