Honorary Police say they don't take the decision lightly, but that safety is the priority. If there is flooding, it is likely to remain closed until around 9.30am for the clean-up.
Jersey Police say Gloucester street has a lane closed for emergency vehicles only.
UPDATE: Both Victoria Avenue and Gloucester Street fully reopened just before 10am.
Monday morning's closure caused gridlock on routes in to town,with many motorists reporting two hour journeys to work.
Stormy conditions last night caused flooding on the Five Mile Road near the Watersplash, while emergency services were called to deal with falling debris from a building where Castle Street meets the Esplanade.
Strong winds brought down trees, and heavy rain and hail showers caused several landslides.
