The Ouse isn't at 6 metres above normal, it was 5.07 metres as of about 3:15pm. The river banks are designed for 5.45 metres and have never been over topped since construction in 1983/84. The river is also currently not over the tops of these defences.
We need engineers, there has to be a way to divert these flood waters.
