River at 0.79m and rising. EA predict 4.53m – we think that’s unrealistic.
With the extra rain, we expect 2.5–3.0m late Sunday/Monday.
This is enough to flood Kings/Queens Staith, S. Esplanade and onto New Walk in parts.
More updates to follow.

River currently around 1.3m. EA forecast rise to 2.5m, but we think 2.2-2.3m is more realistic.

- Castle Mills
- Qns Sth. & S. Esplanade

Millennium Bridge & Terry Ave clear.
FloodNav - York Update

Upstream stations are steady/slightly rising, so levels will persist for a while but no further impact is expected.
Flooding:
Kings/Queens Staith
South Esplanade
New Walk
✅ Millennium Bridge & Terry Ave to City Centre are clear.
Upper Mole fairly high and not falling much now after Friday rain from edge of Storm Eowyn; two bouts of rain over next 24 hrs (windy too) could see >20mm which would cause overtopping to flood plain, and perhaps flood alert if rain comes in at top end of forecast range. Let's see.
FloodNav - York Update

Snowmelt is raising river levels; EA predicts 3.62m.

Millennium Bridge staying clear
FloodNav - York Update
york.floodmapper.co.uk
Temperature is now picking up, leading to a rise in the river levels upstream in response to the snow from last week melting (e.g. Bainbridge - www.floodmapper.co.uk/stations/bai...).
Expecting the river to begin to rise, with a peak later in the week.
FloodNav - Welney Update.

Causeway now has around 14cm of water on the road.
