Probably referring to it due to the fact that it's meant to rain most of today... plus a lot of the rain water won't have come from down the Eden Valley from last night's downpours yet.

No, I'm saying the levels and record levels for that particular station are unreliable and no real indication of impending doom. It shuts down when Northern banks (Rickerby Park) flood (~4-4.5m), as it's situated too low to record anything higher. Levels need to be 7.4m+ for the Southern Banks (Sands) to burst. That's a [censored] load more water than we have or are expecting.

Quite frankly, yup, nowt to worry about in Carlisle on current forecasts. Maybe some local surface water flooding in shit drainage areas (BP).
