The level at the Gloucester gauge was measured at 2.9m and steady last night.

Peak levels could change with further wet weather expected in the next few days. 

Meanwhile, Gloucestershire Police is warning motorists to avoid Cowcombe Hill in Chalford, near Stroud, because it is very slippery due to ice. Latest Gloucestershire weather forecast
