Flooding expected. Take action now.
This message has been issued because flooding of homes and businesses is likely between 8:30pm and 10:30pm, Friday 24th November. Strong winds and spring tides may cause large waves, and spray overtopping on the coast. Areas most at risk are Chandlers Quay, Chelmer Terrace, the Hythe and promenade park. The detailed forecast for those that use it is for a peak level at Clacton of 3.30 mAODN at 9:30pm, Friday 24th November, which is 1.2m above tide tables, wind Force 6, north westerly. (mAODN is height above average sea level - for more info refer to local tide table). The current series of high spring tides will remain for the next few days. Be ready to take action to protect your property if flooding is expected. We are monitoring the situation and further alerts or warnings may be issued.
