The #ThamesBarrier is closing for the 4th time this week to protect #London from tidal flooding.

Closure will take place from 12.45 until approximately 18.00.

This should be the final closure of the week as tide levels are falling after the next high tide.

⚠️ We are preparing to close the #ThamesBarrier for a second time this week.

There is some uncertainty in the forecast, but a high tide combined with increasing fluvial flow is causing a concern for west #London.

If it goes ahead, the gates will start to move at around 11.00.

[Alan - Flood Forecaster @ The Thames Barrier @AlanBarrierEA]

An unusually low low tide at the #ThamesBarrier this morning. #StormCaira is effectively sucking water away from the #Thames Estuary today.

But we’ll have to see the consequences tomorrow, with a very high tide forecast.

We’re making plans to close the Barrier should we need to

[MAA Boat Club @MAABC]

Great win for our awesome WC2x. Looking the #MAABC part!

[MAA Boat Club @MAABC]

Spring tides are here to welcome the spring that has just sprung

[Alan - Flood Forecaster @ The Thames Barrier @AlanBarrierEA]

⚠️ High tides on the #Thames this weekend, starting early tomorrow morning with high river levels expected in west #London.

Be careful where you park your car around #Putney, #Chiswick, #Twickenham, #Richmond and #Teddington.

Observe ‘Road Liable to Flooding’ signs.

[Alan - Flood Forecaster @ The Thames Barrier @AlanBarrierEA]

⚠️I have now issued the Flood Alert for riverside properties on the tidal #Thames from #Putney to #Teddington
Flooding of low-lying roads and footpaths expected at high tides from this afternoon until Boxing Day or possibly Thursday, although high pressure from tomorrow will help
