Storm Surge Captured15/12/2011 |
| The storm surge affecting the English Channel, UK, on 12th and 13th December 2011 was captured by a tide gauge on the Dart Estuary, Devon. The storm surge increased high water levels by up to 0.8m and low water levels by a massive 1.8m. The surge and combined rainfall caused the Environment Agency to issue flood warnings for the area. |

The gauge is operated by oceanographic equipment manufacturer, Valeport. The data was telemetered and disseminated by the online publishing system, Port-Log.net (see image). The grey line is the predicted water level while the blue, slightly dotted line indicates the measured water level.
