Default Good luck to those up north

The north of the country is supposed to be getting a months worth of rain over the next 24 hours which would lead to a heck of a lot of homes getting flooded out, i can only imagine what this would feel like & i hope the weathermen are wrong, if you are in one of these areas i wish you all the best of luck.

Ain't stopped feckin raining for two weeks! Everytime it comes to the weekend its bloody raining and i have to get the bike out for work. I tell you there is a big cloud over HX.
Today is the calm before the storm, if you can call it that, washing out on line, attached by a whole shelf full of pegs. Got to get the lot done today.....cause tomorrow it rains big time again

Glad I live on a hill though, the water passes my house by and floods everyone elses instead

We had severe floods in N. Wales yesterday morning that eased through the day. Although my son had a big scare on the way home from work yesterday evening when a flood was deeper than expected, good job his car has a snorkel fitted! The floods are exacerbated by high tides with the wind driving the tide up estuaries.

Looks like the latest storm has tracked a bit further north than forecast so we might escape today, although heavy rain predicted for us at lunchtime and afternoon today. Floods predicted for Friday and Saturday.

Good luck to my son, who is driving to Carlisle today for a job interview.
