People living along the Norfolk coast have been urged to "be prepared" as further flood alerts have been put in place. 

The Environment Agency issued alerts for the risk of flooding in Wells-next-the-sea due to higher tides and the weather forecast. 

The tide is expected to peak at 3.63m above the average sea level at 9.30am on Friday with flooding likely on coastal roads and footpaths. 

Other places which may be affected by flooding include Brancaster, Burnham Overy, Holkham and Blakeney.

The flood alerts were issued as Storm Lilian arrived in northwest parts of the county on Friday morning. 

Category nine gale force winds of up to 52mph are expected to batter the coast and are set to be at their strongest between 7am and 11am.
