The Irish Sea fills and empties twice a day, the tide pouring in through both the North Channel and St George's Channel. This week the water off Liverpool rose and fell up to 8 metres; off Arklow it barely moved.

🚨 A #Kelvin #Wave Is Heading Toward the #California Coast, Bringing Trouble.

An enormous pulse of wave #energy will soon reach Southern California and continue #north, raising #sea levels by half a foot and increasing threats from #swells and #tides.

"There are those who leave and there are those who are leftover." #Tides

"Charlotte would kill me. She made me quit when our daughter was born. But she's not here to murder me anymore." Simon #Tides

"She isn't thinking about the now, some story already told, already in the midst of its undoing." #Tides

"We'll burn that bridge when we get to it. That's what Lucien had said. He was someone else's husband then and she had asked him: What happens when you fall in love with me? What happens to us then?" #Tides

"Sometimes when they are together, he reminds her: You know, they couldn't come back any minute and then this will have to stop, as if there is no difference between a year, a month, a week or an hour." #Tides

"For a moment after he is gone, she wonders if she can bear it: another night spent alone." #Tides

"Runs away with her thoughts, a note on her report card once read. Now, thirty years on, she supposes she's done exactly that. She's runaway, and her thoughts have come with her, trailing behind, always nearby. #Tides

"She can feel it, the past, grabbling, pulling. Not the recent years, no; it is the distant past that draws her in." #Tides

"There was a game they used to play as children, she and Paul: I am you and you are me...They played as if they belonged to no one, to nothing." #Tides

"No one ever warns you: a #wedding is like a dream in which every person you've ever known shows up and whispers: Don't fuck this one up!" #Tides

"In the dream, it has already happened, what inevitably happens between them in these dreams. Neither of them will say what it is: theirs is a world of secrets, knowledge stowed away, unseen." #Tides

Tomorrow, one of the year's biggest tides reaches Ireland. Tuesday is an equinox spring tide: Dublin's high water at 01:18, then the sea drains almost four metres below it by mid-morning. Every shore going dry is real seabed, one lunar day in 20 seconds. #Ireland #tides #dataviz #maps

"She could convince him, but what would be the point? A serpent eating its own tail, a game of hide-and-seek that refuses to end." #Tides

"To hope is to lose." #Tides

"Mara feels useless, a jellyfish clinging to itself, the body a mere emanation of some distant nervous system." #Tides

"She is not sad, no. Gutted, yes. A clean cut down the middle and all the organs cupped, tossed off to the side." #Tides
