Flood warning

Flooding is expected over the high tide on the morning of Tuesday 9th April. High water at Bude is at 06:47, times of high water will vary along the coast.

Gale force 8 north westerly winds and offshore wave heights of up to 5m are forecast with flooding to properties possible two hours either side of high tide. Expect tides to be up to 300mm higher than predicted due to weather conditions.

Large waves and spray are likely so take care near coastal paths and promenades. This may cause localised standing water. Do not drive through flood water or waves.

Locations particularly at risk include Port Quin, Port Isaac, Boscastle, Trebarwith Strand and Crackington Haven.

Coastal conditions should ease for Tuesday evening’s high tide, however we are continuing to monitor the situation and will issue an update by 11am on Tuesday.

Detailed tidal information for those who use it; The forecast high tide level at Bude is 4.73 mAOD, this is 0.3 metres above astronomical tide level.
