What this means

At 0.18 m, Brough Beck at Catterick Village is below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 0.09 m below the median of 0.27 m for mid-October, based on 21 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 0.20 m (−0.02 m).

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 0.18 m and 0.19 m.

Autumn rain usually starts to lift rivers again after the summer low.
