Flood alert for Upper River Tamar

Get flood warnings by phone, text or email

Flooding is possible on Tuesday the 16th in the evening and Wednesday the 17th in the morning. Heavy rain is expected overnight with the Upper River Tamar expected to peak around 4 am on Wednesday morning. Levels within rivers Neet and Strat are expected to rise also, but to a lesser extent. Expected levels suggest that there will be flooding to low lying land and roads close to the river. We expect the river to remain high throughout Wednesday, though no flooding to properties is currently forecast. Take care and monitor your local weather conditions. We are monitoring river levels and have staff in the area checking for and clearing blockages. This message will be updated on Wednesday afternoon or earlier if the situation changes.

Flood alert area: Bude, Helebridge, Bridgerule, Canworthy Water, Launceston and Yeolmbridge.
