Rain Warnings for the south east
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/w...?regionName=SE I've been out the garden for the last three hours -is my life at risk? They really are becoming idiots. Flooding I can understand but rain and a warning that the ground might get wet. Surely this is one big joke to see how far they can get away with. Absolutely tripe and the forecast was crap as well with a couple of spots hitying me in the garden-should I go to A&E? Oh dear what a dangerous life I lead. Anyone from abroad seeing those -at the drop of a hat- weather warnings would think Britain is in serious trouble. |

Not a drop though and only 6mm since it all started. In fact I noticed the ground was very dry on the Essex marshes when I went for a walk. Dave, S.Essex |

Dave, S.Essex Well the melodramatic twaddle has resulted in our village fair (the Revels) being cancelled. The Creedy is flowing across the field which would be the car park, and the rec has standing pools of water. However, that's not as bad as the many people who've been flooded out (some again). Warnings pretty much spot on here. Malcolm Newton St Cyres Devon |

It just happened that the South East corner which was not in a high risk area virtually missed the rain altogether. Dave |

I'd estimate around 30mm fell in that time ,so would like to know if anybody in that area has a rain gauge ?? RonB |
