Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

High river levels are expected to cause flooding overnight. Flooding is expected on 26 January 2026 . Heavy rain falling in the area will continue overnight. Properties and low lying areas will start to flood from around 11.30pm on Monday. The main areas of concern are Ventiford Cottages and properties around Ventiford Bridge, School Cottages at Teigngrace, businesses at Teignbridge Level Crossing, Sandford Orleigh Farm and the Exeter Road. Flood waters may be deep and fast flowing in these areas. River levels are forecast to be at their highest between 11.30pm and 03:00am. We are monitoring rainfall and river levels. Never drive through flood water, just 30cm of fast flowing water is enough to move your car. Start acting on your flood plan if you have one.
