Flood of panic as resort warned if devastating sea level rises

28th October 2019

Scientists have predicted huge swathes of Southport and Formby could become an island ‘completely cut off from mainline Britain’ by rising sea levels which could flood Sefton’s coastline before the end of the century.

The startling claims have now filled residents with fear they could lose their homes in the coming years.

One report shows that up to 1.5million properties across the North West are at risk of flooding from rising sea levels, which would seriously affect food production across the region, in particular, West Lancashire – double the flooding risk from five years ago.

Over the past decade, the North West has had 17 record-breaking rainfall months – and the 10 warmest years on record for the region have all been since 2002.
