Locations that may be affected include Mitton, Aschurch, Walton Cardiff and locations along the River Chelt from Charlton Kings to Uckington and Boddington.
We expect river levels to remain high throughout the night, 23/10/22. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are checking defences. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses.
