Areas affected: Landford to Wade Bridge on the River Blackwater
ACTIVE
Started at: 07:55 GMT on Mon 6 January
Flooding is expected - immediate action required
The water level in the River Blackwater at Wellow and Ower is very high, but slowly falling. In the last 15 hours, 13mm of rain has been recorded at Romsey. This has kept the river very high during the night. Significant out of bank flooding affecting land and roads at West Wellow, Landford and Ower will continue through today (06/01/2025). The river will remain high enough to flood the Mill at East Wellow until tomorrow (07/01/2025). Only a very small amount of rain is expected to affect Hampshire during Monday (06/01/2025) and Tuesday (07/01/2025). This will give the river a chance to recover and flooding impacts will slowly reduce. Our operations staff will work to keep the river free of reported blockages. We continue to monitor the forecast. Please take appropriate action to protect property and ensure that pumps used to lower water levels are operating. This Flood Warning will be updated by 12:00 on Tuesday 07/01/2025.

River levels are rising steadily in response to recent rainfall and snow melt. Flooding is expected throughout today 07/01/25.

Flooding is possible - be prepared
Water levels in the Danes Stream are now falling having peaked early this morning (Monday 06/01/2025). Milford Dam is operating correctly reducing the amount of water flowing to Milford on Sea. However, river levels in the village remain high and will rise again around high tide at 15:15 this afternoon impacting footpaths and gardens. The river will drop after high tide and levels will continue to reduce. No impacts are expected at Ashley. Only a small amount of rain is expected during Monday and Tuesday (07/01/2025) which will give the river a chance to recover. As water levels return to normal, any minor flood impacts should reduce significantly. On Wednesday (08/01/2025), further heavy rain (up to 25mm) is forecast across Hampshire. We continue to monitor the river and weather forecast, and will issue further advice as necessary. This Flood Alert will be updated or removed by 09:00 on Tuesday 07/01/2025.

Flows in the Lower River Itchen remain high, but tide levels are now reducing. In the last 12 hours, 5mm of rain has been recorded at Portswood. High tide at Southampton is expected at 15:45 and 17:00 this afternoon (06/01/2025) and is forecast at 4.55 metres Chart Datum (1.82 mAOD). Flooding impacts are not expected during this tide. High tide at 04:00 and 05:00 on Tuesday morning (07/01/2025) is expected to be 30cm higher. For 1.5 hours either side of high water, the incoming tide will prevent the river from flowing to sea. This may cause the river to flood the access road and affect the car park near to the White Swan Pub at Mansbridge. Footpath flooding may also affect Riverside Park. Property flooding is not currently expected. Only a very small amount of rain is expected to affect Hampshire during Monday (06/01/2025) and Tuesday (07/01/2025). This will give the flows a chance to reduce. We continue to monitor the forecast. We recommend closing the defence gates around the pub at least an hour before high tide.

Groundwater levels have responded to high effective rainfall during the Autumn, and have risen to high levels at our observation borehole at Lilley Bottom. This rise is from levels which were already high from the previous Winter. Levels are unusually high for this time of year and have now reached a level where communities in the Kimpton and Lilley Bottom area are at risk of being affected by flooding from groundwater. We expect levels to remain high over the coming months in response to the high Autumn rainfall. Low lying land and roads will therefore be at risk of flooding.

Flooding is possible - be prepared
Groundwater levels in the Candovers and Old Alresford are high and remain relatively stable after a week of dry weather. In Preston Candover and Old Alresford, the level is very close to causing cellar flooding impacts to a small number of properties. It is also very close to reducing the ability of septic tanks in Old Alresford to operate effectively. Tomorrow (01/01/2025), unsettled weather is forecast to move over Hampshire bringing between 10 and 20mm of rain. From Thursday (02/01/2025) to Saturday (04/01/2025), the weather is expected to be dry. If the heaviest rain in the forecast affects the area, then it is possible that groundwater levels will rise high enough for cellar flooding and septic tank impacts to occur. We continue to monitor the forecast. We advise residents to remain prepared for flooding impacts this winter. If you use pumps to help reduce water levels, please ensure that they can operate.

Flooding is possible - be prepared
Groundwater levels are currently slowly falling at our Longacre borehole in the Lambourn Valley as a result of recent settled weather. However, groundwater levels remain above normal for this time of year and communities may be affected by groundwater flooding within the coming weeks if levels begin rising again.
We expect levels to remain sensitive to further sustained rainfall, and levels may rise again following prolonged rainfall. Low-lying land, roads and basements will therefore to be at risk of flooding.
Due to the nature of groundwater flooding, this situation could continue for several weeks or longer. We are continuing to monitor groundwater levels and will update this message in a week, 07/01/2025 or as the situation changes.
