A 45 minute play broadcast on BBC Radio 4. Set on the day of the catastrophic flood event in Carlisle in 2005, the play uses a collage of voices to reflect on the act of witnessing an emergency, implicitly the climate emergency. The voice of the storm itself is Jacob Polley's version of an Old English riddle. Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger, and voices from archive radio material from 2005, also feature.
