Flooding possible. Be prepared.
Stormy conditions are forecast, resulting in a large tidal surge moving down the East Coast of England on Monday evening. This will lead to unusually high tidal levels along the Lincolnshire Coastline. The time and date of the forecast high water is 17:45 on 08 April 2024, however conditions may apply two to four hours either side of the high tide. The high tides combined with strong winds may result in wind-blown spray and wave splash causing localised pooling of water behind the sea defences. Low lying coastal land and roads will be affected first. Our forecasts indicate that flooding to properties isn't likely and therefore flood warnings are not expected to be issued. We are constantly monitoring tide levels, and have staff in the field checking our defences and closing tidal gates where required. Please avoid using low lying coastal footpaths near beaches or promenades and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads, as sea spray and waves could be dangerous. This message will be updated online and on FloodLine by 17:00 on 08 April 2024, or before if the situation changes.
