Flooding expected. Take action now.
High tides are expected to cause flooding on Saturday morning 19th October on the Yorkshire Coast. Areas most at risk include harbourside businesses, roads and low-lying land around Whitby Harbour between 5:00am and 6:30am on Saturday 19/10/2024. This period of high tides continues over the weekend and so we may re-issue this warning for subsequent tides on Sunday. We are closely monitoring the situation. Stay away from beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths and roads large as waves and sea spray could be dangerous. This message will be updated by 9:00am on 19/10/2024, or as the situation changes.
