UK Flood Warnings shows every official flood warning and flood alert in force across England right now, updated every 15 minutes, with the area and river or coastline affected and the full message telling people what to expect.
Warnings come in three levels: severe flood warnings (danger to life), flood warnings (flooding expected, act now) and flood alerts (flooding possible, be prepared). Check around a home, office or route by location and radius, look across a county, or see the whole country at once.
