Update from Bradwell Marina.......
All is good - About 1.4m left on the piles. Marina staff are on standby.
However, I've never had to walk UP the walkway bridges before (i.e from land ONTO the pontoons!!!).
Dropped in on Stone on the way back. Tide was just at the bottom of the sea wall.

Small amount of water leaking through the flood gate at Marconi SC

Foxs all good and water receding. Big up to the workforce for moving nearly all of the boats from the 'meadow'. There sre numerous boat owners owing them a beer or three for their efforts. Thanks go to those who arranged for the piles to have additional pieces welded on. Not needed in the end but massive peace of mind. Actually thanks to everyone who turned out tonight to help.

did anything flood into the meadow

The water level has noticeably dropped here, hopefully the worst has now passed.

Now 12.40 and the water has not risen much, if at all, lately here at Mersea, although high tide is not until 2.00am

Apparently it has just breached the sea wall on Brightlingsea Promenade with the area at the Batemans Tower car park flooding rapidly and filling back along the road and fields. Tide is lapping around the sandbags at the Sailing Club.

Kind thoughts, but my wellbeing is OK thank you, and the water is about a metre below my door step. In fact the tide was schedules to be 5.65 metres high, and it probably rose to about 6.00, that is all
