High tides with large waves and strong winds expected across Jersey

05 December 2025

High tides along with large waves and strong winds will lead to waves and debris coming over sea walls this evening (Friday) and again tomorrow (Saturday) morning. 

Jersey Met have issued an Orange Tide Warning for this evening’s high tide at 6.35pm, we are expecting disruption along Jersey’s south and east coast with seawater and debris on roads, and some flooding may occur. 

A Red Tide Warning has been issued for Saturday morning’s high tide at 6.54am, once again we are expecting disruption with large waves potentially coming over sea walls along Jersey’s south, east and west coasts, with the potential for some coastal roads to be closed. 

Senior Forecaster, John Searson said: “Care should be taken for the period around an hour or so before, and after the high tides, avoiding coastal areas where seawater and debris will be coming over sea walls. We are expecting disruption both this evening and again tomorrow morning”. 

Islanders are advised: 

  • seawater and debris on roads, and some flooding may occur 
  • travel disruption is likely with potential for some coastal roads to be closed 
  • please take extra care and allow more time for journeys
