High waves along east coast of England

A winter storm caused travel chaos across the UK on Thursday, December 5, after high winds forced the closure of the rail network and many roads. Many coastal areas were slammed by high winds and waves. Winds in excess of 100mph were reported in some areas of the east coast, particularly at high tide.
