CATEGORY 2
WHAT... Minor coastal flooding due to high tide and stable weather conditions.
WHEN... Potential minor flooding during high tide occurrences with the highest risk around midnight and noon where the tidal data shows a significant increase in water levels.
The weather data indicates a largely overcast day with no precipitation expected, which minimizes the risk of flooding from rainfall. However, the tide data shows peak values which suggest a higher than average water level that could result in minor flooding, especially in low-lying areas. The weather conditions seem stable with moderate pressure and temperatures, which are not indicative of severe weather events that could enhance flood risks.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT... Moderate coastal flooding potential due to forecasted rain and continued high tides.
WHEN... The risk of flooding is increased on this day due to precipitation throughout the day and high tide levels, particularly in the early hours of the morning and late evening.
The weather forecast shows light drizzle and overcast conditions with higher chances of rain, contributing to increased runoff and potential water accumulation. The tide levels remain significantly high, similar to the previous day, which when combined with rain could exacerbate the situation. The pressure is reasonably stable, but continuous monitoring is advised as changes could escalate flood risks.
CATEGORY 1
WHAT... Low risk of coastal flooding under clear skies and decreasing tide levels.
WHEN... The likelihood of flooding is reduced on this day with lower predicted tide levels and clear weather, diminishing the immediate concerns for flooding.
The third day sees an improvement in weather conditions with sunny spells and a decrease in cloud cover, suggesting minimal precipitation-related flood risks. The tidal data indicates a downward trend in water levels compared to previous days, which further reduces the flood potential. However, residents should remain aware of the high baseline tide levels that persist despite the favorable weather forecast.
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
