Flooding is possible - be prepared

Flood alert for River Piddle and tributaries

Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

Flooding is possible as the river, and its streams are rising, due to prolonged, intense rain.

We anticipate river overtopping and flooding of nearby land, roads and buildings in the River Piddle areas.

Flood risk will be elevated between 11:30 AM on 24/11/2024, and 10:00 AM on 25/11/2024.

More rain is forecast in the coming hours, so there is a risk of further flooding, and more land

and properties becoming at risk.

We are closely monitoring the situation.

Prepare now to keep you, precious items, and your property safe. Install flood protection, gather

emergency supplies, pack a bag containing essentials and look out for further warnings.

This message will be updated by 11:00 AM on 25/11/2024, or if the situation changes.

Flood alert area: Tributaries between Alton Pancras and Wareham.
