Flooding expected. Take action now.
Monday morning's tide at 11:37 on 10/02/2020 is higher than normal due to Storm Ciara, which brings strong South Westerly Force 7 winds. The weather increases tide table values by 0.58 m. The total forecast tide is 5.03 metres Chart Datum (2.44 mAOD) at Cowes. For 1 hour either side of high water, the tide could come close to affecting a small number of properties at Medina Road, the Arcade, and Cowes High Street near to the Red Jet terminal. Road flooding is expected along the Esplanade, The Parade, Albany Road, York Avenue, Castle Street, Well Road East Cowes and at The Quay, Newport. At 00:09 on Tuesday 11/02/2020‚ tide levels are much lower, but very minor impact flooding may still occur. We'll issue further advice tomorrow. We continue to monitor the forecast. If you have flood protection, please install it 1 hour before high tide. Move cars from seafront car parks. We will update this message by 16:00 on 10/02/2020.
