Groundwater levels are slowly falling, but remain over the flood alert thresholds. Areas at risk include areas around the Till and the Wylye Valley. Flooding of roads and fields is possible. Light showers are expected Thursday evening (3rd of April) into Friday morning. We are not currently expecting very much drop in groundwater levels. Where groundwater is near the surface, intense rainfall will lead to surface water flooding. Residents are advised to prepare property resilience measures and ensure that pumps are working where they have been installed. We will continue to monitor the situation closely. This message will be updated by 05:00 PM on 09/04/2025, or as the situation changes.
