ANOTHER flood warning has been issued for Poole Harbour for this evening’s high tide.

The Environment Agency has updated its warning for “large and powerful waves” for 9.30pm.

The warning will be in force for between two and four hours either side of high tide.

It comes after the Environment Agency issued a flood warning for Poole Harbour on Saturday night and again on Sunday morning.

Areas deemed most at risk are Lower Hamworthy and areas of Poole from Old Town, The Quay to Hunger Hill.

A spokesperson said: “We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are checking defences.

“Please be careful along beaches, promenades and coastal footpaths and roads as large waves could be dangerous and consider installing property flood resilience equipment.”

The spokesperson said an update would be given on Monday or as the situation changes.

Elsewhere, a flood alert has been issued for Christchurch Harbour with high tide expected at 9.45pm on Sunday night and 10.15am on Monday.

Flood alerts are also in force for the tributaries between Ringwood and Christchurch and Milford on Sea to Lymington.
