Storm Ciaran Causing Flooding Issues For Yorkshire Coast Commuters

Queen Margaret's Road in Scarborough has reportedly been closed in both directions due to flooding. Other roads are also affected by standing water.

Callers to This Is The Coast have reported flood water on the B1261 between Irton and East Ayton and also on the A170 in various places including Snainton.

The Yorkshire Coast is under a Yellow Weather Warning for Rain. The warning is in force until 6:00am tomorrow (Friday 3rd November):

Periods of heavy rain associated with Storm Ciarán will affect parts of northeast England and eastern Scotland during Thursday and early Friday. Rainfall amounts are likely to reach 20-30 mm widely, with 40-60 mm accumulating over high ground, including the Cheviots, North Pennines and North York Moors. Strong easterly winds, becoming northerly by Friday morning, will accompany the rainfall, possibly exacerbating any impacts.

Kirsty contacted us to say the A165 is only just passable near Gristhorpe:

This Is The Coast has regular updates on the weather and travel issues on air. You can call the team on 01723 336444 (option 2) with any updates you have.

We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
