Gravesend and Greenhithe have severe flood warnings for around 2am! SMD may be floating along in his Jag lol

 

A good excuse for the train Southeastern trains not to be running in the morning, they'll use anything to excuse their crap service, they're already stating major disruption and cancelling services and it's not even raining yet! at least I might get a lie in though lol

No doubt SMD will say it's another form of wafting. Hope everyone is ok.

If it flooded where I live then most of the UK would be under water. There are some advantages to living up a hill in South Wales it would seem. ;)

 

Hope it doesn't hit people too hard.

Some serious flooding at Rhyl and I'm hearing of further floods around Deeside. Nothing up here (I'm at 350 feet/110 metres) but by jove it was windy earlier today.

Got a text from my mate on Wednesday.....

 

" 9.9 mtr tide. 40 mph winds. great rollers. You up for a ski tom ? "

 

We ski out of Rhyl.. :scare:

 

Luckily...... I have a knackered elbow at the moment so declined. (never thought I'd be glad my elbow is sore and also my names not Tom)

So very very glad I declined.

 

(9.8 mtr tide at 1 pm today then they start to diminish)
