The Environment Agency has warned of flooding from Whitby to Filey on Sunday, with Scarborough worst affected.
They say:
This flood warning has been issued due to forecast overtopping waves and spray expected as a result of high spring tides and strong winds.
Consequently, flooding of property and roads and farmland is expected on the high tide between 03:30 AM and 08:30 AM, and also for the high tide between 4:00 PM and 6:30 PM on Sunday 20/02/2022.
Areas most at risk are properties on Foreshore Road. Coastal conditions are expected to remain unsettled on subsequent tides and further warnings may be issued.
Please put your flood plan into action and be careful along beaches, promenades, coastal footpaths and roads as large waves and sea spray could be dangerous.
