A flood alert for tomorrow has been issued for coastal areas including Ramsgate.
The alert, from the government’s flood information service, says: “This Flood Alert has been issued as large and powerful waves are expected to affect the foreshore.
“Flooding is expected two hours either side of high tide, between 9:45am and 1:45pm (February 10).
“Flooding is forecast to affect locations near the coast throughout this area, with low lying land expected to be most affected, particularly around Kingsdown, Deal, Pegwell Bay and Ramsgate.
“The unsettled weather with strong winds and possible rain is forecast to continue and the next tides could also affect locations near the coast. Please be careful in areas along beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths during the period of concern.”
Thanet Council
Ramsgate Council what you doing for Ramsgate residents
What has TDC got to do with coastal flooding caused by spring tides and a storm?
Well said, Andrew.
The appropriate emergency services and government agencies deal with coastal flooding, not TDC or Ramsgate council. So no idea where she gets this from.
I am blaming it all on Brexit.
Quite right, nothing to do with TDC, but we also had better weather before the Referendum, anyone else notice that?
Rebecca I think you are getting TDC mixed up with this guy. The King of High Tides
Canute was 40 when he died in 1035. He was also known as Cnut the Great, King of England, Denmark, Norway and parts of Sweden. By the time of the Norman Conquest in 1066 his story was quickly becoming lost to time but his relationship with the tide lingers on.
Whats it got to do with bin collections..im a community carer still have to attend to people who need care
Bin collections?
Cnut, of course, was demonstrating to his councillors that some things were beyond his control.
Marva in her own little world again.
Marva is quite right.
I’m not sure what your point is, nor which little world you inhabit.
The world of Wikipedia.
The 4.31 comment is a reply to Mr/Ms Box, not to Tony. Wikipedia’s where I looked to confirm the facts about Cnut.
