Following the disruptive impacts of Storm Ciaran and the ongoing recovery efforts, more rainfall is expected in the area. This additional rain may hamper the attempts by Southern Water to restore water supply to the approximately 18,000 New Forest homes that remain without water due to flooding and the shutdown of a Southern Water processing plant.
