Flooding is expected overnight on Saturday (23rd November) and throughout Sunday (24th November). Heavy rain has been falling in the River Torridge area, causing the River Torridge to rise.

Flood waters may be deep and fast flowing in these areas. Residents are strongly urged to take action now. Remain safe and be aware of your local surroundings. We are closely monitoring the situation, and this message will be updated Sunday afternoon, or if the situation changes.
