Flood alert for The tidal River Yare from Thorpe St Andrew to Breydon Water
Get flood warnings by phone, text or email
This message has been issued because some minor flooding to riverside roads and footpaths is likely from 8pm tonight, Sunday 5th October, and for at least the next 24 hours. This is due to tidal water moving up the rivers from Great Yarmouth and creating a natural tide locking effect. This will restrict the normal drainage of the Broads river system out to sea at low tide. We expect to see high water levels in Brundall and Reedham riverside areas. We are currently monitoring the situation and will update this message if necessary. Take care on waterside roads and footpaths, and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger. Our workforce are out checking flood defences and clearing weed screens. We will update this message by 3pm tomorrow, Monday 6th October, or as the situation changes.
Flood alert area: The tidal River Yare, from Thorpe St Andrew to Breydon Water including Brundall, Cantley, Reedham and Burgh Castle.
