Flooding is possible - be prepared
This message has been issued because some minor flooding to riverside roads and footpaths is likely throughout today, Wednesday 4th December, and high water levels may last for a few days. This is due to a natural tide locking effect of the Broads. Tidal water moving up the rivers from Great Yarmouth is currently restricting the normal drainage of the Broads river system out to sea at low tide. We expect to see high water levels around Potter Heigham, Wroxham boat yards and Ferry Road in Horning. We are not currently expecting the situation to escalate, or to issue any further warning messages at this time. Take care on waterside roads and footpaths, and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger. We are monitoring the situation. We will update this message by 10am tomorrow, Thursday 5th December.
