25–1 NovNo classesHeight is each gauge against its OWN normal — the 90 days ending a month ago, so the water it is being compared with is not this event. The dotted line is that normal, the next line up its 90th percentile. Not metres, which differ by gauge. Colour is the flood class it has crossed. Dashed ring = too little record to place.

The biggest separate floods here in the last 5 years. Each row is one event's highest reading. Crests within a fortnight of each other are one flood arriving and receding, not two. Pick one to lay it over the chart. Readings before 2023 are left out for a second reason: this gauge’s levels step by more than a metre at that point, which is its datum moving rather than the river, so earlier heights are not comparable with these.
