As we reported earlier in the week the Met Office have issued a weather warning of heavy rain for tomorrow (Friday).
Residents in those areas prone to flooding are being advised by the Isle of Wight council “to take appropriate precautions to protect their properties”.
As well as the heavy rain and high winds, there will also be high tides over the next few days.
