Groundwater
Groundwater levels are high, but falling steadily, at our Chapel Wood borehole in the Leckhampstead area. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and remain at a level at which communities may be affected by groundwater flooding. This week is forecast to be predominantly dry. We expect groundwater levels to remain high over the next week, but levels are expected to continue their downward trend while drier conditions persist. Low lying land, roads and properties will therefore continue to be at risk of flooding through this week. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week, by 08/04/2025, or as the situation changes.
Groundwater
Groundwater levels are high, but falling slowly, at our Chapel Wood borehole in the Leckhampstead area. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and have reached a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding. This week is forecast to begin predominantly dry, but more unsettled conditions are expected towards the end of the week. We expect groundwater levels to remain high for the next few weeks and levels are sensitive to sustained periods of rainfall. Low lying land, roads and properties will therefore continue to be at risk of flooding. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week, by 01/04/2025, or as the situation changes.
Groundwater
Groundwater levels have slightly fallen at our Chapel Wood borehole in the Leckhampstead area. Groundwater levels are above normal for this time of year and have reached a level where communities may be affected by groundwater flooding. We expect levels to remain high for the rest of the winter period and sensitive to further sustained periods of rainfall. Low lying land, roads and properties will therefore continue to be at risk of flooding. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message next week, by 25/03/2025, or as the situation changes.

Groundwater
Groundwater levels are high, but falling slowly, at our Chapel Wood borehole in the Leckhampstead area. 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 is for isolated showers today, some of which could be heavy. Saturday and Sunday are forecast to be dry with further unsettled weather expected next week. 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 by Friday, 07/06/2024, or as the situation changes.
