To all our friends in the UK. I hope that the flooding doesn't hit to hard.

The news here in the US is reporting 9ft tidal surges.

Here is some more on the BBC

This pretty much effects the whole North Sea.

Thanks dude, I've got my swimming trunks on ready.

In all seriousness I actually don't live too close to the effected parts, however a few months ago I was in the heart of floods in Yorkshire UK, lucky enough though my house is not on flood planes it's at the top of a hill, however many were made homeless and a a few of our family members were also effected.

I saw on the news tonight that a lot of people were being evacuated, so hopefully there will be no loss of life this time round.
