Tidal Surge, North Norfolk Coast, 6 December

This was to have been my first trip to Snettisham to see the behaviour of waders when there was a high tide at dawn.   However, because of the anticipated tidal surge, Snettisham was going to be closed until 09.00 on the Saturday.   Instead Ann and I went along the North Norfolk coast to those villages and towns which retained access to the sea.

The first was to Morston Quay where a number of folk had come down to the coast to see if their boat was in the same place - many weren't!

We then went to Sheringham and Cromer and the surge had clearly caused considerable damage to some properties.
