Flooding is forecast to affect locations near the Lower Dorset Stour, with low lying land and roads expected to be most affected, particularly around tributaries between Wimborne and Christchurch. Further flooding is possible this evening as river levels are remaining high due to rainfall. We are closely monitoring the situation.
Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. Monitor local water levels and weather conditions.
