FloodAlert/PegelAlarm

FloodAlert/PegelAlarm have newly added all CFH Gauges – benefitting from a Persimmon Homes Community Grant and a SRA Grant to enable via Queen Camel Parish Council.
Which offers significant advantages – the free version will be sufficient for most people.
  • Automated, self-subscribed alerts
  • Free alerts for a single river level
  • Free alerts for a single river
  • Free to use
  • Alerts can be sent free by SMS & Email
  • Alerts can also vibrate phone and flash your smartphone light
  • Alerts ALSO issued by push notification to phone (with a loud Beep that is hard to sleep through!)

The gauge is located in the River Cam catchment just upstream of Yeovilton and upstream of the confluence with the River Yeo. This gauge is downstream of gauges at Yarlington Eastwood, Yarlington Shatwell Lane, North Cadbury, Sparkford, Weston Bampfylde, & West Camel. The nearest raingauge is at Wincanton however a new gauge is being proposed in the headwaters of the Cam at Bratton Seymour.
