Environment Agency message

Issued 07:43, 27 Oct, shown in full exactly as published.

The Flood Warning has now been removed. However, a Flood Alert remains in force for the wider area, so flooding of roads and low lying land is still possible. We do not expect to see similar impacts from the next high tide. We will continue to monitor the situation and will issue further alerts or warnings if necessary. Continue to take care on waterside roads and footpaths and don't put yourself in unnecessary danger.

Affects: Carlisle, Longtown, Silloth
