But which of these storms from the past do you remember? We have reminders of floods in Victoria Road in 2009, flash floods in 2003 and Storm Ali causing chaos in 2018.
Floods in Dalton Village in 2012 and the year a ship ran aground in 1985 are also included in our feature. Take a look and see how many scenes you remember.
