Water levels may exceed the highest tide of the year by around a metre between Cape Moreton and the Qld/NSW border on the overnight high tide tonight into early Friday morning, and half a metre above the highest tide of the year for remaining coasts south of Double Island Point. Water levels may exceed the highest tide of the year by half a metre between the Gold Coast and the QLD/NSW border on the overnight high tide Friday and early Saturday morning. Water levels in southern Moreton Bay are expected to be less than half a metre above the highest tide of the year on the overnight high tide tonight and early Friday morning, and close to the highest tide of the year in northern Moreton Bay. This could lead to flooding of the foreshore and coastal erosion. Damaging surf conditions leading to significant beach erosion are likely between Double Island Point and Coolangatta with VERY HEAVY SURF currently occurring south of Cape Moreton. These conditions are expected to continue increasing this evening as Alfred moves closer to the coast particularly along the Gold Coast. Beach conditions in these areas are VERY DANGEROUS and people should stay well away from the surf and surf exposed areas. Damaging surf conditions may start to ease between Double Island Point and Cape Moreton from early Friday. A Tropical Cyclone Advice and Forecast Track Map is current for Tropical Cyclone Alfred.
