Flooding expected. Take action now.
Low pressure will cause sea levels to be higher than forecast in tide tables. First forecast high water is 20:45 on 11/03/20 with a level of 8.56 mAOD and a Force 6 South Westerly wind. Second forecast high water is 09:00 on 12/03/20 with a level of 8.49 mAOD and a Force 6 West South Westerly wind. All times are local and refer to high water time at Avonmouth. Flooding to roads and properties is possible at these times, but conditions may apply two hours either side of the high tide. There is a possibility of flooding for the Severn Estuary from the Old Severn Bridge to New Passage including low lying properties at Old Passage, Aust Road and Severn Road areas. Peak levels will be higher than the tide this morning, 11/03/20. Our incident response staff are checking defences and closing flood gates. Take care along beaches, promenades and roads as large waves could be dangerous. Please install property flood resilience equipment now. This message will be updated on 12/03/20.
