River Ribble tidal bore at Preston 15 June 2018

Filmed near Preston town centre between the Liverpool Road bridge and the A59 bridge. A great viewing location is from the footpath by the Preston Sea Cadets centre. A not so good spring tide was due, and under normal circumstances not much of a bore would be produced at this location, if any at all. However the river level was very low following a long period with little rain, and there was a brisk south westerly wind pushing the tide in. The tide can be seen arriving with no bore. As the river passes under the A59 bridge it bends and widens, and a well formed, if smallish, bore was produced. The bore travelled under the Liverpool Road bridge, but then fizzled out to nothing. The bore is more impressive further down the estuary, but this is a much more convenient viewing location. Date filmed: 15th June 2018 Expected high tide at Blackpool: 9.1m @ 12:39 The bore passed the Preston Sea Cadet centre at 11:22 All times BST (GMT+1) If you are interested in other bores of North West England, search YouTube for : tidal bore rob bridges
