Flood Warning issued on 4 Oct 2020 14:59
River Chew
River levels have risen rapidly as a result of Storm Alex and the heavy persistent rain and increasingly wet catchment, consequently flooding could occur between 15:00 and 18:00 on 04/10/20. We believe there is a possibility of flooding for the Old Mill Leat at Stanton Court. There is a risk of property flooding at Bye Mills, Church Street at Pensford, Woollard, Compton Dando and Chewton Place. At Keynsham there is a risk of flooding to properties at the bottom of Dapps Hill, particularly at Alice Mews.
Further lighter but persistent rainfall is forecast over the next 24 hours but we expect river levels to begin falling overnight into Monday morning 05/10/20.
We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are clearing weed screens.
This message will be updated by 15:00 on Monday, 05/10/20, or as the situation changes
