The notice as issued
River levels are expected to be high as a result of spring tides. The next high tide at Richmond at 17:00 PM on 16/07/2026, may result in brief low-level flooding of riverside roads and open spaces. Astronomical tide levels are rising. The river flow at Teddington Weir is 8 cubic metres per second and is steady. We anticipate the flows to remain low for the next five days.
