| The coastline at Crosby at high tide, the morning after the worst of Storm Eleanor had passed over. The seas were still high enough to swamp the promenade. The head of an iron man is just visible in the sea on the right of the image. |
Just three days into January and Storm Eleanor passed over the UK, Scotland and Northern Ireland suffered the brunt of the storm but there were still 60mph winds along the Sefton coast. These images were taken at high tide around 11.45 the morning after the worst of the storm had passed over. The iron men were covered by the rough high seas and the promenade battered by the wind driven waves.

| An apt warning for the stormy conditions |
 |
| The head of an iron man becomes visible in a trough between the waves. |
 |
| The fast moving clouds were torn apart at times so that bursts of sunlight swept across the seas... |
 |
| ...rainbows came and went in the bursts of light that caught the showers. |
 |
| Spray from the sea filled the air |
 |
| Showers sparkled in the flashes of sunlight. |
