River Sheppey: water levels along the river

We have 3 gauges on the River Sheppey. 1 of them reads below normal for the date, and none is running high.

The gauges are in Somerset. Reading the gauges in order shows how a rise or a dry spell travels downstream, usually over a day or more on a big river. Autumn is often a low point for rivers after the summer, until steady rain returns.

About the River Sheppey

The River Sheppey has its source in a group of springs west of the village of Doulting, near Shepton Mallet in Somerset, England. It flows through the wetlands to the north of the Polden Hills and ultimately joins the River Brue.
