Drivers have been warned they could face disruption from waves crashing onto coastal roads at high tide.
A yellow weather warning for "coastal overtopping" at several exposed areas until midday has been issued by Ronaldsway Met Office.
Roads most likely to be affected were the central and northern sections of Douglas Promenade, Shore Road in Rushen, and Castletown Promenade, with Ramsey and Laxey Promenades also in danger of debris washing ashore.
Police said heavy rain overnight had also left standing water on many roads across the island, with the bottom of Brown Cow Hill in Santon closed for a time due to "significant flooding".
Further spells of rain are expected throughout the day, turning heavy once again in the evening and into Wednesday.
A similar warning for waves bring debris ashore was in place on Monday, rising to amber around the time of the evening high tide.
