The flag is Yellow.

Boating is restricted to University crews, first VIIIs and tub pairs. During Lent Term, any VIIIs in the first or second division of the Lent Bumps may boat. During Easter Term, any VIIIs in the first or second division of the May Bumps may boat. Members of crews permitted to boat under a Yellow Flag may do so in fours or small boats (i.e. single and double sculls and pairs) with the express permission of the Club Captain and/or Boatman.

Outlook: Forecast for tomorrow looks bad with strong winds and even stronger gusts. 
A strong yellow flag until 12pm, with a high liklihood of flag turning red in this time. Crews must assess if an outing is going to be practical, safe and productive-- for most crews it won't be. 
The river is technically 'rowable', so not a red flag, but it won't be if conditions worsen.
