Carnage after the Storm

North Berwick

OK, not on the scale of Hurricane Sandy, but we had our own storm damage today.
Large storm waves crashed over the harbour wall and washed a refridgerated container into the basin, smashing boats and yachts.

What a mess, the power of the sea is never to be taken for granted.

Wow Bill, that looks like quite the storm. Some well captured images of it and of the destructive forces of nature.

Chaotic indeed, and expensive for all concerned.
Johnny JAG15-Dec-2012 19:02
That's going to take a bit of tidying up.
Helen Betts15-Dec-2012 17:04
Well, certainly bad enough! Excellent documentary coverage of the havoc wreaked by the storm.

Nice bit of reportage; but also a gentle reminder that nature will always out....

Oh my! This is a mess! Powerful indeed to knock that container.
Guest 15-Dec-2012 13:41
Very interesting work! V.

Oh no. There are/were some gorgeous boats down there. That container must have been floating about at sea. I have heard accounts from lone sailors about lots of floating containers on the ocean.
