More than 10,000 homes and businesses are affected by the order, according to the British Environment Agency, which has issued seven severe flood warnings for people living on the Norfolk and Suffolk coast near Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. Environment Secretary Hilary Benn warned of potentially historic flooding in the next 48 hours. Click here to see Sky News' coverage of how the tide surge is formed.

In anticipation of the surge the Thames Barrier, which protects London from flooding, was to be closed Thursday night to cope with water levels four feet higher than usual. Prime Minister Gordon Brown convened an emergency meeting of officials Thursday afternoon to coordinate potential mass evacuations and rescue efforts.
I'm on the East coast just a bit higher up from Norfolk in Lincolnshire. The local news stattion seem to think it could hit our area. Luckily the sea is a few miles from my house so it won't affect me, hopefully
This sucks man. I hope everyone will be ok. We had floods couple of weeks ago. Cars were driving down the road by themselves Good luck !
Thanks for posting the link to the article.. This is the first I've heard of this.. I hope everyone is ok and not too much property is damaged.
