Flood Alert issued on 13 Jan 2020 15:12
Wyre Estuary
A Flood Alert is in force for the high tide on Monday evening into Tuesday morning. As a result of strong winds associated with Storm Brendan coinciding with the high tide, tidal flooding may occur on low lying land and roads, particularly in and around Hambleton. People are advised to stay away from risk areas and be aware of rising flood water cutting off access routes.
The tide is forecast to peak at 01:00 GMT on Tuesday 14 January, at a level of 5.11 mAOD at Hambleton and 5.01 mAOD at Fleetwood (which converts to 9.91 metres above local datum at Fleetwood Dock). These levels include an approximate surge of 0.6 metres. High water can be expected for 2 hours before and after the peak.
We have checked tidal defence assets and will continue to monitor the situation. High spring tides are reducing and this is likely to be the last flood alert issued during this phase.
