Sterted here about 16:00 yesterday, had a brief cessation during the night, but was precipitating it down when I got up at 07:00 & is still doing so.


Thundering & Lightning yesterday afternoon, & also early this morning

Orrible today just stopped raining now.
The V festival is on this weekend at Weston Park in Staffs, could be soggy for the thousands of campers!

Apparantly, we were told that Barnsley Hospital was flooded in sections yesteday afternoon, so we were on standby to recieve patients who lived between Wakefield & Barnsley.
The funny thing is (in a way) that the Hospital is on highest land in Barnsley :roll:

Alos the M62 was partially flooded in sections (well.... standing water yesterday tea-time)
