Sign up for flood warnings
Sign up to get flood warnings if your home or business in England is at risk of flooding. The service is free.
You can get warnings about flooding from rivers, the sea or groundwater, depending on your area.
You cannot get flood warnings for surface water flooding (sometimes known as ‘flash flooding’).
