I went out on the Solway today to see the "Super Tide", and it was bloody high. In places it was only a foot or so below thew top of the flood bank.

Yup I was between Boustead Hill and Drumburgh, just by the cattle grid (Calrilse/Allerdale boundary). The entire road was flooded between Drumburgh and Dykesfield with just Boustead Hill and Easton humps above the water line. I assume the sight was similar all the round the estuary to Skinburness.

T'was an amazing thing to watch, as the water engulfed the whole marsh as far as the eye could see
