A flood alert has been issued. Higher than normal tides tomorrow morning may lead to flooding across coastal frontages over the next few days Flooding is possible between 7:45 AM and 10:00AM on Friday 21/09/2024. Areas most at risk are coastal roads and footpaths in Kilnsea and Spurn Point. We expect this alert to remain in force for the AM tide for Sunday as well. We are closely monitoring the situation and will re-issue this alert if required. Be careful along beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths and roads as large waves and sea spray could be dangerous. This message will be updated by 9:30 AM on 21/09/2024, or as the situation changes.

- Check that you know how to turn off your gas, electricity and water mains supplies.
