Flood alert

River levels are rising at the Ludlow Corve river gauge and river levels remain high but are beginning to fall at the Onibury river gauge, as a result of heavy rainfall.
Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is expected.
We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads adjacent the River Teme, River Onny and River Corve and their tributaries. Locations that may be affected include Bishops Castle, Church Stretton, Knighton and Ludlow.
Peaks:- Leintwardine peaked at 1.37m on Thursday 28/03/24; Onibury peaked at 2.21m on Thursday 28/03/24.
Predicted peaks:- Corve 3.1m to 3.3m on Thursday 28/03/24.
Further rainfall is forecast over the next few days. We expect river levels to remain high until Saturday 30/03/24. We are closely monitoring the situation. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and avoid contact with flood water.
This message will be updated by 9am on Friday 29/03/2024, or as the situation changes.
