WEST Somerset experienced some of the biggest high tides that the West of England has seen in two decades, according to the Environment Agency.
Over the weekend, parts of West Somerset were issued weather warnings as coastal towns prepared for the super-spring tides.
The spring tide reached the pinnacle of its 18-and-a-half-year cycle between February 18 and February 23, which meant that some towns and villages, including Minehead and Porlock, were issued warnings that “flooding is possible” from the Environment Agency.
Although the warnings are no longer in force, high tides are still seen in some areas today.
Here is a roundup of some of your photos.
