High river levels may lead to flooding.
River levels are high on parts of the River Ock and Letcombe Brook. Flooding of low lying land and roads is expected to continue today, 15 February 2026, especially in the Charney Bassett and Wantage areas. Further rain is forecast today, which has the potential to be heavy at times. We expect river levels to remain high over the coming days.
We are monitoring rainfall and river levels. Avoid low lying footpaths and roads near rivers, which may be flooded. Go to River Levels Online for updates on current river levels.
This message will be updated by 12:00PM on 16 February 2026 or as the situation changes.
