Beverley Shipyard

Hull 🌊 Tidal
Hull and East Riding catchment • Beverley • East Riding of Yorkshire • ID: L3204 • Level
This gauge is tidally influenced — levels rise and fall with each tide, so rapid changes here are normal and don't necessarily indicate flooding.
⚙ Tidally influenced - confirmed by cross-correlation with a nearby tide gauge (auto-classifier missed it). Excluded from rising-rivers rankings and the prediction models.

Flood predictions aren't generated for tidal gauges — their levels are driven by the tide, not by catchment rainfall, so the forecast models would have no skill here.

💧 Storm overflows upstream of this gauge

Storm overflows whose water reaches this gauge on the mapped river network, nearest first by distance along the river. The status is each water company's monitor: it says whether an overflow is discharging, not how much or what it contains.

6 storm overflows are traced upstream of this gauge, the nearest 15.3 km away along the river. 0 report discharging now, 6 report not discharging.
