According to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), starting in May 2024, a comprehensive coastal flooding prediction and alerting program was implemented across Canada. This new program will allow meteorologists to issue coastal flooding alerts and forecasts across most of the country, using both the probability and expected impact of an event.
These services will give early warning to emergency management organizations and Canadians about the risk of coastal flooding.
