Latest flood alert advice from the Environment Agency: This is an update to the current Flood Warning. River levels remain high and are continuing to rise due to recent rainfall and high groundwater levels. Flooding is expected at locations in Britford, Charlton All Saints, Downton and Fordingbridge in close proximity to the River Avon. The weather remains unsettled with more rainfall forecast throughout the day today, which may cause further river level rise. We are closely monitoring the situation. Continue using any flood protection products you may have and acting on your flood plan if you have one. Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water. Never drive through flood water, just 30cm of fast flowing water is enough to move your car. This message will be updated by 1:00PM on 16 February 2026 or as the situation changes.
