Overall summaryThe river that was flooded was called the River Eden, it runs through North Cumbria and reaches the sea near Carlisle where it flooded. The drainage basin is very big so it catches a lot of water, causing a high river discharge. There are many tributaries so the lag time is short as more water reaches the River Eden quickly. |
