Flood alerts were issued along parts of the Norfolk coast. 

There were two alerts for the north Norfolk coast from East Clay to Kelling Hard, including Salthouse, and from Old Hunstanton to Cley. 

There was one further alert in place from Eccles on Sea to Winterton-on-Sea.

The alerts were issued on Thursday night due to a risk of some minor flooding to coastal roads and footpaths.

This was due to an unusual low-pressure system causing a small surge between 5.45am and 7.45am today (September 29).

High tides mean flood gates will be closed restricting normal access to beaches around Eccles on Sea and Sea Palling.

The Environment Agency advised people to stay away from risk areas and to take extra care next to the coast. 

The alerts are no longer in place.
