Here's another shot so you can see the depth of the water, kinda hard to tell but at 1 point it was pouring over these boards (which is why the park is flooded...next picture)

Where the green line is is normal tide...and thats usually about as high as it goes m8...todays water was many times what should of been there, as you got off the bridge you pretty much stood straight in to water.

Was strange looking out my window and seeing these boats so high up lol.
