mikecambrai Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Is this flooding caused by rain or just the high spring tides and a Northerly wind in the North Sea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baitrunner Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Springs and the wind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshman Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Its ok - because of the lack of dredging the water could not yet have got up the Bure!! Or has it?? https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/station/6203 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRascal Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I’ve been posting updates today on the NBN Facebook Group but here is my videos edited into a single one for you HERE As I type, the tide is once more rising with high water in Brundall expected to peak around 2:00am. Hopefully it won’t be too awful when it does. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranworthbreeze Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Dear all, Flood alerts are again in place today Wednesday 9 January for the tidal River Waveney from Ellingham to Breydon Water (including Beccles Quay, Oulton Broad, Somerleyton, St Olaves, Haddiscoe and Belton) and tidal River Yare, from Thorpe St Andrew to Breydon Water (including Brundall, Cantley, Reedham and Burgh Castle). High water levels may last for a few days until the effect of the high tides at Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft this week have passed. This is due to the natural tide locking effect of high tidal waters moving up the rivers yesterday from Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft that restricts the normal drainage out to sea of the Broads river system at low tide. The Environment Agency are not currently expecting the situation to escalate on either of the rivers. For more information please visit the Flood Warning Information Service website: https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/warnings Kind regards, Tom Tom Waterfall Digital Communications Officer 01603 756034 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
