River Wey
River levels are high and still rising at the Broadwey river gauge as a result of saturated ground and heavy rainfall overnight. Further light rainfall is forecast on Saturday morning which will sustain the current high river levels thoughout the weekend. High groundwater levels are adding to river levels; consequently, there is a risk of flooding. We believe there is a possibility of flooding for the River Wey to Radipole Lake, Preston Brook and River Jordan.. River levels can rise very quickly in response to heavy rainfall.
