Historical Flood Warnings for this Area
Flood Warning issued on 8 Apr 2024 13:27
The Solent, English Channel
Tuesday's early morning tide at 00:00 on 09/04/2024 is higher than normal due to unsettled weather with strong Southerly Force 6 winds and large waves. The weather increases tide table values by 0.57 m. The total forecast tide is 5.29 metres Chart Datum (2.70 mAOD) at Cowes. The tide level is predicted to be higher than recorded on 14 Feb 2014 when 2 properties flooded. For 1 hour either side of high tide, properties directly on the sea front at Marsh Road could flood. Tidal water will flow across Marsh Road bridge and fill the Gurnard Luck which could cause garden flooding to properties nearest to the river. After this tide the weather becomes more settled but minor impacts could continue until Thursday (11/04/2024). We continue to monitor the forecast. If you have it, please install flood protection 1 hour before high tide. We will remove this message by 16:00 on 09/04/2024.
