Rain

Wow. And people say that global climate change is a hoax... good luck!

Now that is a photo to keep - though if the heavy rain happens regularly then it is not so much of a shock - if it is a once in 500 year event to get so much rain in one 24 hour period, and after a period of wet weather too then we see the bridges swept away and flooding in areas which have not been affected before.

It can be rather interesting when there is widespread but shallow flooding, where the water builds up rather than rushes into an area, to see that the worse affected houses are usually the modern ones, and there are older houses which have shallow water around them, then the solitary houses and old churches which are sitting on little islands in the water where in previous centuries people have known where the water lies and have either used a natural feature or built up the land in order to keep the water out.

Midday Sunday and the sun has appeared again - such a relief after the gloomy days we have had.
