Flood Alert Update: Hunstanton Coast, Norfolk

The Environment Agency has confirmed that there is no longer a threat of flooding along the Hunstanton coast in Norfolk. Tidal conditions are expected to improve and no further flooding is anticipated at this time.

Current Situation

Although the immediate threat has passed, standing water and debris may still be present in some areas. The Environment Agency has stated it will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if conditions change.

What You Should Do

Even though the flood risk has reduced, it is important to remain cautious:

• Take care on waterside roads and footpaths. Surfaces may still be slippery or obscured by debris.
• Stay away from any remaining floodwater. Floodwater can contain hidden dangers, including open manhole covers, sewage, and chemicals, even when it appears shallow or calm.
• Do not put yourself in unnecessary danger. If an area looks unsafe, do not attempt to cross it on foot or by vehicle.
