North Berwick, Scotland, UK. 15th December 2012. Storm damage in the old harbour of the fishing village. A major storm swept in overnight from the North Sea and 20 foot waves broke over the seawall, sending a 40 foot refrigerated container that was parked in the carpark into the harbour, smashing many boats and yachts, causing tens of thousands of pounds of damage.
