Flood Warnings

The Environment Agency operates a flood warning service. If flooding is forecast, warnings are issued using a set of four easily recognisable codes.

Each of the four codes indicates the level of danger associated with the warning.

There is also a free subscription service available which is available at www.metoffice.gov.uk

Tamworth Borough Council have published a Sandbag Policy.
