Flooding possible. Be prepared.
This Alert is for the high tide for the coast from Southport to Formby at 23:53. People are advised to take additional care next to the coast and stay away from low lying land, roads and promenades. Gale force winds, wave and spray overtopping is expected during this evening and overnight. High water levels can be expected 2 hours before and after the peak of the high tide.
