Njugle Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 Odd. The admiralty tidal prediction site is giving a 1.6m tide, which is high, but not exceptional. Perhaps they do not factor the tide* into their information. [edit doh! *weather! ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frances144 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Twill be interesting to see the contents of the new Museum floating past! Apparently with wind in a certain direction and a high tide can result in the ground floor being flooded! Is this truth or legend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutton Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Regarding the museum, it really is going to be in trouble with sea level rises, what a silly place to put it (although it does have a nice view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
