Flood Warning!

A warning has been issued today at work regarding possible flooding due to what could be the highest tides for the next 20 years. This particular disaster scenario originated from the Environment Agency.

Being right on the banks of the Mersey the Assassination Bureau is in a high risk area.

We've been asked not to leave cars in the car park overnight this weekend - presumably to prevent them from being smashed into the side of the building by the flood waters.

Luckily we're off to Brum this weekend to a friends wedding. Can't get more inland than that, and no river to speak of, so we should survive the deluge.

Also the weather is looking OK at the moment. There's only a risk if the higher than normal high tides (due to a spring tide coinciding with the September equinox) are combined with severe weather conditions.
