JERSEY MET is warning about that high tides combined with strong winds this evening and tomorrow morning are likely to lead to waves and debris coming over the sea walls.

An Orange Tide Warning has been issued for this evening’s high tide at 6.35pm, which may lead to some flooding.

On Saturday morning, the risk level has been elevated to ‘red’ for the high tide at 6.54am on Saturday morning, with warnings of large waves potentially coming over sea walls along Jersey’s south, east and west coasts, with the potential for some coastal roads to be closed.

Senior Forecaster, John Searson, commented: “Care should be taken for the period around an hour or so before, and after the high tides, avoiding coastal areas where seawater and debris will be coming over sea walls. We are expecting disruption both this evening and again tomorrow morning.”
