Two flood alerts have been put in place along the Suffolk coast by the Environment Agency.
The first alert is for the Suffolk and Essex coast from Felixstowe to Clacton, including Orwell and Stour estuaries.
This could also include Ipswich.
The second flood alert is for the tidal Deben estuary, from Felixstowe Ferry and Bawdsey to Ufford.
Both warnings are for possible flooding and those living in these areas should be prepared by monitoring water levels and weather conditions and avoid areas prone to flooding.
The Environment Agency did not say how long the alerts are in place for.
