What this means

At 0.03 m, Dulas Brook at Ewyas Harold is at a record low.

It has now dropped past the published record low of 0.04 m (August 26, 2025). The usual range here runs from 0.13 m to 0.50 m.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 0.01 m and 0.05 m.

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

On the river at Ewyas Harold

Low, clear water makes fish wary, and anglers often do better early and late in the day. For canoeists, shallow riffles mean scraped hulls and the odd portage.

Flood warnings for the area come from the Environment Agency.
