Receptor and Consequence

The same regions were reported as flooded during this event as had been reported earlier in the year during January 1933. Once again, this event was associated with flooding along the Highlands coastline (Hickey, 1997). Reportedly, impacts were also observed around Humberside, on the English east coast.
