Weather forecast
The rainfall totals for Wednesday are up to 5mm as light rain. Thursday
is set to be a mainly dry day, with totals of up to 2mm.
Friday will see high winds combined
with low pressure and high rainfall totals. Totals at present are
forecast to be between 10-15mm for Friday afternoon and into
Saturday. Winds will be Force 5/6 in a southerly direction. Combined
with low pressure, this is likely to cause some coastal issues at
high tide on Friday.
The wind is forecast to change
direction to more of a westerly direction on Saturday, which will
have a bigger impact at high tides, with the wind due to stay up at
around the Force 6 strength.
Flooding situation
There are still five flood warnings in
place across the area; all of which are on the Somerset Levels and
Moors.
The levels on the upper reaches of the
Somerset Levels and Moors (upstream of Langport) are dropping
following the rainfall yesterday. Rivers will remain sensitive and
respond quickly to any further rain. Levels on the lower reaches of
the catchment are stable but remain high.
