Oxford’s Radcliffe Meteorological Station reported the city saw 62% more rainfall than usual in January, while 88% of the typical monthly amount has already fallen in the first 10 days of February.<\/p>\n
Mansbridge said groundwater was now adding to the problems.<\/p>\n
A groundwater alert remains in place for Lambourn Valley, and he warned of “lots more impact over the next month or so”.<\/p>\n
He reminded residents that flood alerts mean flooding is possible, while warnings mean it is expected. <\/p>\n
People in at\u2011risk areas should move valuables upstairs, relocate cars to higher ground and ensure pets are safe.<\/p>\n
“My advice is not to drive or walk through floodwater because it is often murky, you can’t see what is underneath – like a manhole cover can pop up – and there is a danger to life,” he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oxford’s Radcliffe Meteorological Station reported the city saw 62% more rainfall than usual in January, while 88% of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":284810,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[242,85,46,141],"class_list":["post-284809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-environment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/284809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=284809"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/284809\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/284810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=284809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=284809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=284809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
