Default Strangely high 'highest' tide

A lot of strong N wind (up to sustained mean 55mph) GFS has over
sufficient fetch of the North Sea 25 Sep, driving seawater into the
bottom of the North Sea. There may be a noticeable E-W surge along the
Rng Channel 26 Sep, to have enough left to be observable on Newlyn tide
gauge. NTSLF tends to pick up such wind and surge but not east wind and
then lack of predicted consequential surge in the Eng Channel


For logging such progress over Dover,Newhavem,
Pompey,Bournemouth,Weymouth,Plymouth, Newlyn tide gauges, E-W surges
tend to be faster than the normal tide pulse going W-E along the Eng
Channel, could be about 8 hours full transit Dover to Newlym, rather
than about 12 hours.
