Waiting for the Flood?
The news is dominated by the high winds and rain affecting the south of England but, here at Red House, we are still waiting for our first flood of the year. The River Ouse has been at a consistently high level but has not breached its banks since Christmas Day last year. Rainfall over the Estate has not been excessive with 88mm since the 1st of January, but it has rained on 30 days out of the last 40, making the ground very muddy. As the picture shows though, the river might just flood this week.
