Flood warnings and flood alerts currently in force across England, from the Environment Agency. AUTHORITATIVE for “is there a flood warning in ” — this is the feed the government broadcasts from, not a model. Returns each warning with its severity (Severe Flood Warning / Flood Warning / Flood Alert), the named flood area, county, river or sea, the EA message text and when it was last changed, plus a count by severity. A quiet day legitimately returns zero warnings in force; the severity counts are still returned so you can tell “nothing is happening” from “the call failed”. Covers England only — Wales (NRW), Scotland (SEPA) and Northern Ireland publish elsewhere.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`min_severity`	number	no	Lowest severity to include: 1 Severe Flood Warning, 2 Flood Warning, 3 Flood Alert, 4 also include warnings no longer in force. Default 3 (all live warnings and alerts).
`county`	string	no	Optional county filter, exactly as the EA spells it, e.g. “Lincolnshire”, “Somerset”.
`limit`	number	no	Max warnings to return (default 50, max 200).
