Stronsay
A FLOOD WARNING update has been issued for Stronsay.
Whilst the risk of wave overtopping is reducing due to lower water levels, the continuation of strong north-westerly winds, becoming northerly overnight, means that a continued risk of coastal flooding in Stronsay remains. Any low lying coastal roads and properties across the island exposed to the prevailing wind will be subject to significant wave spray impacts. Waves overtopping roads, harbour and foreshore may lead to hazardous and unpredictable conditions. Northerly winds place houses facing the harbour in Whitehall at particular risk. The highest risk will be a few hours either side of the high at 01:15 GMT on Wednesday 5th.
Remain vigilant and remember, it is your responsibility to take actions which help protect yourself and your property. Advice and information is available through Floodline on 0345 9881188. This FLOOD WARNING UPDATE is now in force until further notice. If you havent already signed up to receive free flood messages, please call Floodline or register online at sepa.org.uk/floodingsignup.
