Flood alert for The tidal River Yare from Thorpe St Andrew to Breydon Water
This message has been issued because some minor flooding to riverside roads and footpaths is likely this evening, Friday 19th April, and into tomorrow, Saturday 20th April. This is due to a natural tide locking effect. High tidal water moving up the rivers from Great Yarmouth is currently restricting 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 not currently expecting the situation to escalate, or to issue any further warning messages at this time. Take care on waterside roads and footpaths, and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger. We are monitoring the situation and will update this message by 10am tomorrow, Saturday 20th April, 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.
