This is my usual walk only minutes from home. My walk was cut short as the waves were breaking across the path. In the bottom middle photo it looks like a large cloud above the beach huts where in fact it is a large breaking wave. Lower right is a disintegrated beach hut. A family were recovering the contents.
I saw 2 trees uprooted. The only route onto the island has been closed for 3 hours during the period of high tide. Fortunately I had no reason to leave the Island today. (Hayling island, south coast, U.K.)
Fab pics....you were brave to be outdoors! We are on south coast Cornwall and were OK.....however....the north coast has suffered badly.....roofs, trees, debris flying about and so many blocked roads....
It’s pretty bad here too. Makes for great pictures though. Most people I know now have had structural damage to fences and gates. I keep asking them to take pictures. Love the pictures! Great drama.
Some great photos of this extreme weather! I know there were warnings for amateur photographers, not to go to the coast - but if you are already there……
Amazing set of shots, untill I read your narrative I did think the middle bottom shot was cloud. The weather is still raging here in Leicester at 4.30, but the canal is nothing like that.
Holy cow! Don't do that again! Really great shots, but please stay safe. The man who teaches my Welsh class is in West Wales and said yesterday there was a red warning/advisory -- something they almost never have.
