FLOOD WARNINGS Issued For Scarborough's Foreshore Road & Sandside

Two Flood Warnings have been issued for Scarborough's Foreshore Road & Sandside, with a Flood Alert issued for Whitby to Filey.

The flood warnings have been issued this evening:

Flooding is expected from 02:00am to 04:30am on 24/10/2026. Locations most affected will be coastal roads, footpaths and foreshore areas. This is due to high tides, strong winds and large waves. We are closely monitoring the situation. Avoid coastal roads, footpaths and carparks, which may be flooded.

The flood Alert has been issued for the whole Yorkshire Coast between Whitby and Filey:

High tides overnight may lead to flooding. Flooding is possible from 23:45 on 23/10/2026 to 05:00 on 24/10/2026. Locations most affected will be coastal roads, footpaths along the North Sea coast from Whitby to Filey, including Scarborough. This is due to high tides, strong winds and large waves. We are closely monitoring the situation. Avoid coastal roads, footpaths and carparks, which may be flooded.  

Scarborough has already been hit by FLASH FLOODING from torrential downpours this afternoon.

On top of the flash flooding and tidal warnings, a Yellow Weather Warning for WIND is in effect for the Yorkshire Coast from 12:00pm on Saturday 24th October until 9:00pm on Sunday 25th October:

Strong winds will spread across northern parts of the UK during Saturday afternoon, combining with spells of heavy rain. Initially strong southerly winds will affect parts of Scotland before more widespread and even stronger westerly winds develop later on Saturday. Very windy conditions will then persist overnight and through much of Sunday before gradually easing from the southwest later. Gusts of 55-65 mph are likely widely with some coastal and exposed areas potentially seeing gusts of 70-80 mph or more, these strongest gusts most likely across Scotland and the far north of England.
