Rising river levels today may lead to flooding. 

Flooding is possible on 16 December 2025 due to heavy rainfall last night. 

Flooding can affect locations near the Middle Dorset Stour, with low lying land and roads expected to be most affected, particularly around tributaries between Sturminster Newton and Wimborne. Further rainfall Wednesday evening into Thursday may see river levels continue to rise. 

We are monitoring rainfall and river levels . 

Consider activating any flood protection products you may have . Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water 

This message will be updated by 5:00PM on 17 December 2025 or as the situation changes.
