At 6.29pm a crew from Settle was called to Proctor Row, in Kirkgate, to attend flooding to a cellar. The flooding was around one metre deep. Crews pumped the water into a drain at the bottom of the garden. Light portable pump, suction and small tools used.

At 6.50pm, a crew from Skipton was called to Austwick Close, Settle, to attend flooding inside a property. On their arrival the flooding had receded so firefighters helped occupants with putting sandbags out.
