High groundwater levels are expected to cause flooding. 

Flooding is expected from 25th January 2026. 

Groundwater levels in Cranborne Chase remain high. Areas that could be affected include: the area of the Ebble Valley. The groundwater level at the Down Barn borehole has risen to 73.1m, and is expected to rise further over the next few days. Residents are advised to prepare property resilience measures and ensure that pumps are working where they have been installed. Residents may experience inundation of septic tanks and sewer systems. Flooding of roads is expected, take particular care when driving, both for your own safety and to prevent flooding to others. 

We are closely monitoring the situation . 

If you have a pump, make sure it is working and switched on. Think about alternative power sources in case of power cuts . 

This message will be updated by 11:30AM on 28 January 2026 or as the situation changes.
