Flood alert for River Yeo and Parrett, The Levels

Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

A considerable amount of water remains on the Somerset Levels and Moors. Flooding is still affecting the low-lying moors near the Rivers Yeo, Parrett, Sowy and Kings Sedgemoor Drain.

We are maximising use of the River Sowy (Parrett Relief Channel) to drain down upstream moors, as river levels and water levels allow.

Pumping stations are operating around Langport and temporary pumps over-pump at Dunball sluices during high tide, when water cannot gravitate into the River Parrett.

Monday is expected to be largely dry and the weather is forecast to be more settled until Thursday.

We are closely monitoring the situation, and our Field Teams are operating structures and pumps.

Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. Don’t put yourself or others at risk.

This message will be updated by 1PM on 3 March 2026.

Flood alert area: Low lying land within the Levels including Langport, Burrowbridge, Othery, Westonzoyland to the M5.
