Saturday afternoon's tide at 13:15 on 19/02/2022 is forecast to be higher than normal and similar to Friday afternoon 18/02/2022. Gale Force 8 South Westerly winds and large waves increase tide table values by 0.56 m. The total forecast tide is 5.28 metres Chart Datum (2.54 mAOD) at Chichester Harbour. For 1 hour either side of high water, flooding will affect Shore Road and a small number of properties in Bosham High Street and Gloucester Terrace. Water will reach the top of slipways in West Itchenor. Friday evening’s tide will be 50 cm lower than the Friday and Saturday afternoon tides. Strong winds and large waves will continue over the weekend, albeit not as extreme. After Saturday, the next highest tide is forecast to be 20 cm lower, on Monday afternoon. However, spray and minor flood impacts will continue this weekend. We continue to monitor the forecast. If you have it, please install flood protection 1 hour before high tide.
