Have been issued for heavy rain across the county. Please check that the drains outside your house are cleared of debris. If you find any blocked drains or need sandbags let me know or call 01913706000 or email hal@durham.gov.uk

Most gulleys will always have some water sitting in them, so don’t automatically think that they are blocked unless the water level is up to the top of the gulley/road/pavement.
