Storm Eunice Hits Ilfracombe - Countdown to High Tide

Storm drama of strong winds, sea, power outages and trees flattened, and if that wasn't enough storm Franklin quickly followed in with near perfect wind direction and combined storm and tidal peak surge in daylight hours.

I love your videos with waves so much 💕 Thank you!!!

Never tire of watching the sea

[@happylifeSteph]

Amazing pictures, thanks a lot 🫶👍

[@Awake-Aware]

Always look forward to your storm footage. Some great waves in this. Thanks for sharing.

No worries, the first storm 'Dudley' missed us in the South West imo, then came the others, the much media hyped Eunice peaked mostly during the low tide and the night tide was OK but seen much better, the 'under-rated' Franklin was a nice proper daylight early morning surge, the best of the three easily.

Impressive but curiously restful - I kept nodding off to the sound of the crashing waves!

11.19 seconds. What a stupid and irresponsible place to park an ambulance paid for by the taxpayer.
If a piece of driftwood washed over who would pay for the damage ? This really makes me mad 👹

[@rickh.9543]

Well the short answer is that the paramedics who parked it there are a complete jobsworth. They know full well it’s irresponsible and should be on call elsewhere not thrill seeking at the publics expense.

[@russty2996]

Exactly They all tell everyone to stay away from it incase any rock or debris gets washed up and then out off all the things to park the closest it’s an ambulance .That tells everyone it’s ok to go that close .disgrace

[@karenmoakes]

If this is what makes you mad then you really need to get out more. More important things going on than this 🙏🙄

[@richardgiles2484]

@karenmoakes take it you don't pay income tax then and live on hand outs from the rest of us that do 🤣

[@sandpit72]
