Storm Barra & High tide

The sea wall is in front of the benches and the area behind is car park. Webbed feet or wellies needed to enter the pub.

Just a tad soggy! We were under flood threat at High Tide in Scarborough with Storm Arwen. Hope you are warm and dry and toasty again now!

[JackieR]

Favved as I admire your bravery to stop there and it is a fab shot

[Steve Chappell]

Great shot but wow, not so good for the Inn

[Kitty Hawke]

That could be us here in Cornwall......high winds and high tides......

[katy]

My word. One needs to be desperate for whatever they serve at this pub to make the trip! Terrific capture. Were you in the water too?

[Mags]

Wow! That's a real high tide. Stay safe!

[Jacqueline]

Great capture, happens this more often ?

[Bill]

I can imagine the landlord gets a bit fed up.

[Bill]

Landlady?

[Granny7(Denise)]

High tide???

[Suzanne]

Great photo.

I was so interested in this that I looked up the floods and Storm Barra.

They are lucky their outside furniture didn’t float away.

@ankers70 thank you. Great information. A hour after this shot was taken the water was up to the level of the seating on the benches

[Babs]

Oh dear, no Sunday roasts there for a while.

[Kathy]

Whew! A good shot of the water and stormy sky. The coastal areas take the brunt of these storms at high tide. I assume that the inn as well as other buildings close to the water had some protection in place to prevent flooding in the buildings.

[Carrie Shepeard]

That’s a lot of water! Excellent capture though!

[Peter Dulis]

lovely tone

[LManning (Laura)]

Excellent capture with the waves continuing to roll in.

[Diana]

What an amazing sight and so hard to believe it is possible! Well done on bracing the tide and getting this fabulous shot.

[Lis Lapthorn]

Excellent shot.

[Ingrid]

Oh dear...

[Suzanne]

Wow! That would need more than gumboots! @wakelys

[Poppo Livy]

Did they have a special on freshly caught fish and chips that day

[Susan Wakely]

@terryliv I think that the fish swam into the kitchen.

[Poppo Livy]

@wakelys . . . and straight onto the frying pan

[Bri]

Excellent capture, it was bad enough here in the Midlands, so it's hard to imagine how it was on the coast.

[Nina Ganci]

oh dear
