River Nene
River levels in the River Nene remain high as a result of recent rainfall in the Middle Nene area, which has led to flooding of low-lying land and roads close to the river. We expect the river to remain high throughout the next few days and flooding to gardens, driveways or outhouses is possible close to the river. Our forecasts also indicate that further flooding inside properties is not likely and therefore flood warnings are not expected to be issued.
