Flood Warning

Keep you fingers crossed for Britain cos tonight the whole of the east coast is expected to be hit by storms that are developing in the North Sea.
A 3Metre Tidal wave is expected to hit some areas and coincide with high tides and high winds.
The threat of Flooding and danger to lives is serious, people are been evacuated.

I live 40 miles inland but in a low lying area on a tidal river, at present we are expected to miss the worst but many others arn't looking so good.

My town last suffered major floods about 7 years ago, although I was ok I had friends with homes flooded, Electricity for the whole area was off for quite awhile cos the main sub/station flooded.

Thanks San, No damage to report here, we seem to have missed the bad bit but some areas further south have not been quite as lucky.
