Period: From January 2026
Issued on 12.01.2026 using data to the end of December 2025
The outlook for January is for normal river flows and normal to above normal groundwater levels across most of the country, except parts of southeast England where normal to below normal flows and levels are most likely. In these areas, normal to below normal flows and levels may persist through the January-March period. Elsewhere, normal flows and levels will predominate over the next three months except in some northwestern areas where normal to above normal flows are favoured.
