River levels remain high at the Tern - Walcot River gauge as a result of recent rainfall. Consequently, flooding of roads and farmland is expected to continue.
We expect flooding to affect low lying land and roads adjacent to the river from Wolverley to Newport. Other locations that may be affected include Market Drayton, Wem and Rodington.
Further rain is forecast over the next 48 hours, and we expect river levels to be high over the next few days. Our incident response staff are closely monitoring the situation.
Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
This message will be updated by 9am on 22/12/2024, or as the situation changes.
