The arrival of Storm Eunice overnight on Thursday brings the potential for very stormy conditions.
The combination of high tide, forecast winds and wave heights gives a risk of flooding leading up to and around the high tide at Milford Haven at 7:20am (8:57am Aberystwyth) on the morning of Friday 18th February. Current forecasts indicate that a storm surge associated with Storm Eunice could cause significant tide level increase.
There is still much uncertainty about the extent of the possible impacts from the storm but they could be significant, we are monitoring the situation very closely.
This message will be updated if the situation changes.
