Jersey Met have issued a red tide and red wind warning with the Island expected to be hit by gale force eight winds and gusts of up to 70mph in showers on Monday night.
High water on Monday night is at 7.38pm and is 37.2ft and on Tuesday morning high tide is at 7.54am (38.5ft).
The government has issued the following advice:
– expect some flooding, on the south coast particularly, around high tides
– keep away from coastal areas to avoid risk of harm and don’t put yourself in any unnecessary danger, especially in coastal areas, as there will be a risk of flying debris, including stones
– ensure personal property is tied down or brought inside
– expect travel delays tomorrow morning
– Victoria Avenue may close on Monday evening to westbound traffic around the high tide and is likely to close on Tuesday morning from 7am
– Liberty Bus is due to run as normal though some services may be delayed
– schools are open as normal but the government will issue further advice if that decision changes
– school buses are running but may be delayed and parents are being reassured not to worry if their child is late for school
