The Humber guns fired 1950 rounds that night. On the second night, the bombers starting dive-bombing the still-burning city in groups, making predicted fire difficult, but the guns fired about 3400 rounds. The two-night blitz resulted in over 400 deaths in the city. However, after this the number of raids against the UK tailed away and the Blitz is considered to have ended on 16 May, though periodic raids on Hull still occurred, causing damage and deaths.
