Safety & River Disclaimer

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Rivers are dynamic natural environments with unpredictable hazards.

All river levels (m), discharge estimates (m³/s), activity suitability scores, and weather indicators provided by Riverable UK are for informational and recreational planning purposes only.

Real-time telemetry from the UK Environment Agency (Defra) Flood Monitoring Network is provisional and subject to continuous sensor calibration, telemetry lags, and environmental disturbances such as sudden catchment rainfall surges, weir operations, and tidal influences.

Never rely solely on automated online scores to make water safety decisions. Always visually inspect river sections, weirs, and current strength before entering, consult official Environment Agency flood warnings, be aware of cold water shock risks, and wear a properly fitted CE/ISO-certified buoyancy aid when paddling.
