News from EDDC:

I am afraid we have another  AMBER warning for MEDIUM risk from coastal/tidal flooding on Wednesday morning tide. Given the swell and wind we could see similar impacts to those on Monday, including flooding along the seafront in Exmouth.

Please can you ensure that your At Risk Communities are made aware (probably already in everyone’s consciousness with the current weather, but always worth a reminder).

The public should also be advised to stay away from seafront areas due to the risks from heavy waves.
