Well, what a night.

Hows the flooding where everyone is?

Its not to bad where I am, as we live on top of a hill, but all around is flooded and traffic is chaos.

Anyone got any pics of how bad it is near them?

BLOODY HELL.

That's the good thing about being literally a minute's walk from the sea - if I'm flooded, you KNOW we're in trouble.

Emzy,

Maybe we don't get it 'Up North' as we're higher up the country and water always runs downhill to find the lowest level ie 'The South'

I'll be eating my own words in a few days I bet

not too bad but the back garden was about 50% flooded out under about 6-8 inches of water at 11 oclock last night..im glad we have a raised pond as the fish would have been swimming out of the pond

unfortunately our village is quite low down and our house is at the low end,when we had the last bad rain the drain covers in the street had blown off and water was coming out of them at about 3 foot high !!

We had some rain and then it stopped. Sunny now, I dont think we've ever got close to flooding, lucky.
