River Wharfe

The flood warning for the River Wharfe at The Avenue Collingham and Linton Ings remains in force. River levels have been dropping in the upper catchments, but are now rising due to local rainfall. Levels are not expected to rise much further or reach yesterday’s levels. We are not expecting large amounts of rainfall through today and expect to remove the flood warning later on. We are expecting some overtopping of defences at these levels and are deploying pumps to the area. We will update the forecast details as new information becomes available. Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded, and see the GOV.UK website for a 5 day flood forecast and up to date river levels. This message will be updated later today, or as the situation changes.
