Coastal Hazard Warning
for ABNORMALLY HIGH TIDES

for parts of East Gippsland, West and South Gippsland and Central Forecast Districts.

Issued at 10:55 pm Tuesday, 27 May 2025.


Abnormally High Tides easing from the west of the state.

Weather Situation
A deep low pressure system lies to the east of Tasmania. A ridge of high pressure to the west is directing a vigorous southwesterly flow over Victoria following the passage of the low and front.
ABNORMALLY HIGH TIDES for the following areas:
Central, East Gippsland and West and South Gippsland
ABNORMALLY HIGH TIDES may lead to sea water flooding of low lying areas of Victorian coasts east of Point Nepean this evening. Tides are likely WELL ABOVE the normal high tide mark, but will decrease early Wednesday morning. Tides will also be elevated during the day on Wednesday but are not expected to rise above the normal high tide mark.
At the Lakes Entrance tide gauge, the sea level is slowly easing after having potentially reached 1.1 above the Australian Height Datum (AHD). This is expected to cause sea water flooding of low lying areas, before easing further early on Wednesday morning.
Abnormally high tides have eased about coastlines west of Point Nepean.
Locations which may be affected include Wonthaggi, Lakes Entrance and Mallacoota.
Coastal Hazards are no longer occurring in the South West district and the warning for this district is CANCELLED.
Cancellation for the following areas:
