Whoa!
That does not sound good at all. -------------------- I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant!  |

It appears the surf is not up - at least as much as was feared.
Woe to the surfers. There are some good pics of the tidal surge now in the updated story. -------------------- The only easy day was yesterday....

Thanks for the Link 'BM' Thats one angry Sea at Cromer.One can only hope for everyone affected,the worst is now over.
Would think it pretty dangerous for your Hubby to try and rescue his boat,in those conditions. Was it as bad as the devastating 1953 Floods? We here in OZ can't allways believe the Media reports we are getting. --------------------  I Search for the Sjogren's Foundation,Who will you search for?

Yea. We had the highest flood in Hamburg in the past 15 years. Rotterdam, for the first time since they have created the sluice in the 90s, closed its doors to the harbour. Less damage occurred than anticipated. Only some poor tourists who underestimated the flood level at the old fish market and owners of flats / apartments in the new harbour city, found themselves with a surprise. Some pics here
