Other locations that may be affected include Bodenham, Lugwardine and Hampton Bishop. No further rainfall is forecast. We expect river levels to remain high for several days.   We are closely monitoring the situation. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
