Natural Resources Wales has issued a Flood Alert for the North Wales coast, warning that flooding is possible for areas from the Dee estuary to the east coast of Anglesey. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The alert is in force as of the high tide at 12:15 AM on Friday, 24 March 2023. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The warning states that “low-lying land and roads along the North Wales coast are expected to be affected, with sea spray and waves potentially posing a danger to those in the area. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Natural Resources Wales advises caution around beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths, roads, low-lying land, and estuaries, as the waves could contain debris and pose a risk to the public. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Residents can monitor the situation in their area by using the ‘River Levels, Rainfall and Sea Data’ feature on the Natural Resources Wales website. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The organisation will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide updates as needed. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
