We gave live updates on the situation yesterday afternoon and into the evening, and the details from the Environment Agency have not changed since last night saying: “River levels at Farndon are rising and are expected to do so for the next 18 hours. River levels at Manley Hall are rising and are expected to do so for the next 6 hours. In addition to the area detailed, some localised flooding problems may result from surface water.
