Isle of Wight coast flood alert area

Thursday afternoon's tide at 12:30 on 28/03/2024 came in below forecast at Cowes. Waves recorded at Sandown [IOW] were above storm threshold, with average heights of 2.5m and some peak heights recorded at 3.8m. The unsettled weather which bought strong winds and elevated tide levels along the south coast will clear the area by the time of next high water. Over the next week, tide levels are significantly lower than today. We are not expecting further impacts as a result.
