Flood alert update: Hunstanton coast, Norfolk

The Environment Agency has confirmed that the threat of flooding along the Hunstanton coast in Norfolk has now passed. Tidal conditions are expected to continue improving, and no further flooding is anticipated at this time.

Current situation

Although the immediate danger has passed, some standing water and debris may still remain in affected areas. The Environment Agency is continuing to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if conditions change.

What you should do

Even though the flood threat has eased, it is important to remain cautious:

  • Take care on roads and footpaths near the water. Surfaces may still be slippery or obscured by debris.
  • Stay away from any remaining floodwater. Floodwater can contain hidden hazards, including open manhole covers, sewage, and chemicals. It is not safe to walk or drive through it.
  • Do not take unnecessary risks. If an area looks unsafe, do not enter it.

Will there be further updates?

The Environment Agency will continue to monitor tidal conditions in the area. If the situation changes, further alerts or warnings will be issued. You can check the latest information directly on the Environment Agency flood monitoring service.
