Flooding possible. Be prepared.
This message has been issued because some minor flooding to coastal roads and footpaths is likely between 6:30am and 8:30am tomorrow morning, Wednesday 8th October. Tides are expected to be higher than usual, due to the forecast weather conditions during spring tides. High tides will mean flood gates will be closed restricting normal access to beaches around Eccles on Sea, and Sea Palling. The detailed forecast for those that use it is for a peak level at Cromer of 3.05mAODN at 7:30am, on Wednesday 8th October, which is 0.29m above tide tables, wind Force 4, North Westerly. (mAODN is height above average sea level, for more info refer to local tide tables). Take care on coastal roads and footpaths, and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger. We are monitoring the situation and not expecting the situation to escalate. We will update this message by 11am tomorrow, Wednesday 8th October, or if the situation changes.
