Picture: Tidal Surge Batters England

The south east of England yesterday saw the largest tidal surge in half a century, the waters were nearly 8in (20cm) lower than originally feared and passed without causing major damage. In 1953, 307 people died, when high tides and a storm saw a tidal surge of 3.2m (10ft 6in).
