I blatantly stole this from the AET because I thought it was important and I didn't see it here. So thanks to binauralsonds for the original post. Get out of the way, people, stay safe!

A three-metre tidal wave is predicted to surge in the North Sea in the next 12 hours posing an "extreme danger to life and property", experts have warned.
Coupled with storms and high tides, the wave could leave swathes of the east coast under water, according to the Environment Agency.
A combination of gale force winds off the coast of Scotland and high tides are expected to cause floods which could breach sea defences.
• Nine severe flood warnings issued by Environment Agency
• Surge expected to hit east coast in next 12 hours
• Police on standby to evacuate homes
• Dartford Creek and Thames barriers closed

What is a swathe?
swathe is a kind of bandage?
we say it a lot... a swathe of immigrants, a swathe of tourists.. etc
I used to drive a swather on the farm. It's kind of like a combine or a very large lawn mower. It leaves windrows to pick up later with a baler.

It's like a band or a wave, too. Like people. Like a Swathe of 20 people getting off the Tube at 1:00 from a Pearljam concert, and trying to get in to a dressy nightclub.
I seem to remember something like that!
Bambi Girl is right in that path! :( I hope all goes well for them.
