Yellow Weather warning

This will affect Castletown promenades, Shore Road Rushen and the northern end of Douglas promenade.

Some slight inner harbour flooding is also expected around this time Back Hope Street, Castletown (potentially around 10-15cm- but floodgates should be closed) and a few centimetres around the Tongue, Douglas.

With continued strong south-westerly winds some further minor coastal overtopping of water and minor debris is expected around the hours of the following high tide (1pm-4pm).

This will affect Castletown promenades, Shore Road Rushen and the northern end of Douglas promenade.
