Flooding Information
Useful Information about Flooding:
• Receive updates by signing up to Cumbria Community Messaging
• Receive Flood Alerts and Warnings by signing up to the Flood Warning Service
• Track pockets of heavy rain using the Met Office’s Rainfall Radar Map. By monitoring this map you can see the path that the rainfall is taking across the country – and so make a reasonable prediction of where it might fall next.
• Utility companies are also useful sources of information.
Sandbags are available from:
• Ulverston: North Lonsdale Road Depot, LA12 9DZ
You can collect sandbags during normal office hours and have up to 10 per property. In some cases the depot will stay open for longer so that sandbags can be collected outside of office hours.
In exceptional circumstances SLDC will attempt to deliver sandbags to the elderly and infirm. To arrange this please call our contact centre on 01539 733 333.
