Carlisle Flood Action Group

Carlisle flooded badly in 2005 (1600+ properties) and December 2015 when Storm “Desmond” caused the inundation of nearly 2,200 properties in the City some to a depth of 2m. – a previously unrecorded depth. The Carlisle Flood Action Group (CFLAG) was formed in January 2016 following a community meeting of affected residents and is a founding member of CRAGG.- an amalgamation of 10 community groups based in Cumbria.

Heavy rain is expected in the Eden catchment on 30 Nov/1st

“Heavy rain is expected in the Eden catchment on 30 Nov/1^st Dec but the EA wish all those with power outage not to be concerned of a flood event as flows are expected to remain in channel – any one with power who knows of others close by without may wish to pass on reassurance”.

You now know what we know.
