Please do explain how climate change has any bearing on the probability of a low pressure area off the NE of Scotland coinciding with a spring tide. The effect of climate change on the moon which affects tides might be good place to start.

The above was the exact precise reason for yesterdays events which last occured big time in 1953.

One of the things which can give climate change a credibility problem is attributing every single weather condition to it without foundation.
