River Eden
Following yesterday's heavy rainfall river levels remain high in the Carlisle area, however we expect them to fall throughout the day, 10/02/2020. Consequently, the risk of flooding remains to low lying roads, car parks, public spaces and recreational facilities at Rickerby Park, Swifts and Stoneyholme Golf Courses. Flood water could be deep and fast flowing, and therefore pose a risk to life. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are liaising with emergency services. Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded. This message will be updated in the next 8 hours or should the situation change.

River Eden
River levels are forecast to rise again at the Linstock river gauge as a result of heavy rainfall on the Pennines and levels on the Upper Eden at Appleby which caused flooding there only peaking in the last few hours. Consequently, the risk of flooding remains to low lying roads, car parks, public spaces and recreational facilities at Rickerby Park, Swifts and Stoneyholme Golf Courses. Flood water could be deep and fast flowing, and therefore pose a risk to life.
Further showers are forecast this evening and overnight and we expect river levels to remain high until tomorrow morning
