Description

Flood Warnings are provided by the constant monitoring of stations and forecasting flooding from rivers or the sea: - A Flood Alert means: Flooding of low lying land and roads is expected. Be aware be prepared watch out! - A Flood Warning means: Flooding of homes and businesses is expected. Act now! - A Severe Flood Warning means: Severe flooding is expected. There is extreme danger to life and property. Act now! - An All Clear will be issued when Flood Alerts or Warnings are no longer in force for this area. Flood Warnings are available on our website and as a Live Feed. The live feed provides a summary of flood warnings (Alert Warning and Severe) that are sent externally. The Flood Warnings Live Feed provides current status update of every Flood Warning Area in England and Wales. This is updated on the FWIS service every minute although it is presented for external users every 15 minutes via the Data Distribution Hub where the XML can be securely downloaded (sFTP feed). You must get a licence from Natural Resources Wales if you wish to use any data from sites in Wales.
