torkellIt's a tad windy tonight. No phonecall from the Environment Agency (yet), but a flood alert has materialised on their website...
Interestingly they're warning about tomorrow's high tide, which looking at the astronomical prediction is higher than tonight's (and that's before you take the storm surge into account). I wonder if it'll be high enough for me to have a moat again?
