Flood Alert Info - Groundwater flooding in the Lambourn Valley catchment

Groundwater levels are currently rising at our Longacre borehole in the Lambourn Valley as a result of persistent rainfall. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and have reached a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding within the next week. We expect levels to rise over coming weeks and levels remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall. Low-lying land, roads and basements will therefore to be at risk of flooding. Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week, 17/12/2024 or as the situation changes.

Groundwater levels are high but falling slowly at our Longacre borehole in the Lambourn Valley. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year, and communities may continue to be affected by groundwater flooding as the catchment remains sensitive to further rainfall due to saturated ground and high groundwater levels. The weather forecast for the next week is dry on Friday and most of Saturday, with further unsettled weather expected from Sunday, 26/05/2024. Low-lying land, gardens, roads, and cellars will therefore continue to be at risk of flooding. Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. Avoid driving or walking through floodwater as there may be concealed hazards. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week by Friday, 31/05/2024, or as the situation changes.

Groundwater levels have continued to decline but remain high at our observation site Northfield Farm borehole, in the Lambourn Valley. Groundwater levels in this area, are still at a level where communities remain at risk from groundwater flooding if prolonged heavy rainfall is observed. We issued a groundwater flood alert on 30 December 2019 for the areas at risk of groundwater flooding in the Lambourn Valley, and this will remain in force. Groundwater levels have declined further at our observation sites Longacre and Chapel Wood. There is no longer a risk of groundwater flooding in these areas. The weather forecast is for a largely dry week with a chance of thunderstorms developing (20 May to 27 May 2020). We continue to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week by 27 May 2020, or as the situation changes.

Groundwater levels continue to fall very slowly but remain high at our Longacre, Northfield Farm and Chapel Wood observation boreholes in the Lambourn Valley. Groundwater levels in this area are still at a level where communities remain at risk from groundwater flooding. Low-lying land and roads are at risk of flooding first. Property flooding remains a possibility in the longer-term. Due to the nature of groundwater behaviour, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer and the speed at which flooding will occur is dependent on rainfall conditions.

Groundwater levels remain high at our Longacre and Northfield Farm observation boreholes in the Lambourn Valley. Levels are high enough that communities may be affected, particularly in the Mile End area. Levels have however begun to drop over the last week. Levels at the Longacre observation borehole are at the level where we would expect to see flooding impacts and there are likely to be locations where groundwater is flooding at the surface. Low-lying land and roads are at risk of flooding first. Property flooding is possible in the longer-term. Due to the nature of groundwater behaviour, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer and the speed at which flooding will occur is dependent on rainfall conditions. The weather forecast is for a mainly dry week (15 April to 21 April 2020) with potential for showers on Friday and Saturday. We continue to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week by 22 April 2020, or as the situation changes.

Groundwater levels remain high at our Longacre and Northfield Farm observation boreholes in the Lambourn Valley. Levels have reached a level where communities may be affected, particularly in the Mile End area. Levels have remained stable over the last week. Levels at the Longacre observation borehole are just below the level where we would expect to see flooding impacts and there may already be locations where groundwater is flooding at the surface. Low-lying land and roads will be at risk of flooding first. Property flooding is possible in the longer-term. Due to the nature of groundwater behaviour, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer and the speed at which flooding will occur is dependent on rainfall conditions.
