Flood Warning Info - Tidal area at Cardigan

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.

This Flood Warning is for this evening's tide on Tuesday 7th December. The storm force winds are forecast to be from a South Westerly direction, and gusts of up to force 10 are possible. Offshore waves are expected to be very large. High tide at Fishguard is expected to occur at approximately 9:30 PM this evening. Be careful on beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths, roads and low lying land. Be careful as sea spray and waves could be dangerous and could contain debris.

This Flood Warning is for the high tides on Saturday the 14th November and Sunday 15th November.

However, there is uncertainty in the forecast, so we advise properties owners monitor the situation carefully and install flood protection measures if this is appropriate. Car parking in this area around the periods of high tide should be considered carefully. You can view the water level in this area by visiting the 'Teifi at Cardigan Quay' gauge on our river levels online service on our website. We will update this message if the situation changes.

This Flood Warning is for the high tide on Sunday Morning the 9th February. High tide at Cardigan is expected to occur at approximately 08:15 AM. The winds are forecast to be force 8 to 9 on Sunday morning, from a general South Westerly direction. Values in Tide Tables are not especially large on Sunday morning, however, these tides will coincide with Storm Ciara which will bring strong winds, a significant tidal surge, and heavy rainfall. There is uncertainty with the surge values, however the current forecast indicates water levels may reach the top of the slipway at Gloster row. There is a risk some water will breach this slipway and may approach a small number of properties in this area. Heavy rain overnight may exacerbate flooding in this area, so installation of flood gates is recommended in this area as a precaution. We will continue to monitor the situation and update this message if the situation changes.
