Flood Warning Info - River Calder at Hebden Bridge - Mytholm and Hebble End

River levels remain high as a result of heavy rain associated with Storm Bert, and snowmelt over higher ground, on Saturday 23rd November. Whilst levels have fallen, more rainfall overnight (which may continue through this morning, Sunday 24th November) will see river levels start to rise again, so flooding remains possible. However, levels are not expected to get as high as they did yesterday, and are forecast to peak between 09:30 - 10:30 today. Impacts remain possible in the Todmorden, Hebden Bridge and Mytholmroyd areas into Sunday morning. The A646 Halifax Road is currently closed due to flooding. Flooding of roads and low lying land remains possible from rivers and surface water. We are closely monitoring the situation and our Area Incident Room shall continue to be open through the weekend. Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water or walking near swollen rivers - especially as gale force winds are still forecast over the weekend. This message will be updated by 12:30 on Sunday 24 November 2024, or as the situation changes.

River levels have risen as a result of persistent heavy rainfall from Storm Ciara. Although river levels are currently levelling off, a further heavy pulse of rain is forecast later this morning, 09/02/20. We expect this to cause a sharp river response, raising levels higher than just seen in the first peak. Consequently, flooding of property is possible from around 08:30, 09/02/20. Areas most at risk are along Stubbing Holme Road. The Hebden Bridge sirens have been sounded. We expect river levels to continue to rise until midday today. We are closely monitoring the situation. Please put your flood plan into action and see GOV.UK for a 5 day flood forecast. Please plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded, and avoid contact with flood water.
