Checking flood risk by postcode is one of the quickest ways to understand whether your local area may be affected by flood warnings or longer-term flood risk.
How to check
- Enter your postcode on the FloodCheckr homepage.
- The search opens the official UK flood checking service.
- Review current flood warnings, alerts and local information.
- Check again during heavy rain because conditions can change quickly.
Tip: Save your local flood checking page to your phone favourites.
