The high water level combined with windy weather creates a local risk of flooding and erosion.

The warning is valid from 7 p.m. on Saturday to 7 a.m. on Sunday, from the Öresund Bridge to Simrishamn.

SMHI points out that low-lying piers and quays, roads or buildings may be flooded.

In addition, moored ships are at risk of damage. People should also be aware that clearance for sailing under bridges is reduced.

Furthermore, the risk of erosion along sensitive stretches of coast is increasing.

There is a yellow warning for gale-force winds in the southern, southeastern, central and northern Baltic Sea.
