Flooding possible. Be prepared.
Wednesday afternoon's tide at 13:45 on 10/09/2025 is higher than normal due to unsettled weather with strong South Westerly Force 5 winds. The weather increases tide table values by 0.2 m. The total forecast tide is 6.26 metres Chart Datum (3.21 mAOD) at Littlehampton. For 2 hours either side of high tide, water will be high up slipways. If the tide comes in a little higher than we are predicting, it could be possible for a small amount of water to flow through The Shipyard, and onto Rope Walk. Thursday's early morning tide at 02:00 11/09/2025 is forecast to be 13 cm lower (3.08 mAOD). Reduced flood impacts are predicted on Thursday afternoon, before tides fall from Thursday evening. We continue to monitor the forecast. If you have it, please install flood protection 2 hours before high tide. We will update this message by 18:00 on 10/09/2025.
