Default Alston Storm - Cumbria

Big thunderstorm in the High Pennines this evening around Alston

Numerous properties flooded and roads ripped up, sadly there has been
one fatality, elderley gent bailing out water has suffered a suspected
heart attack, rumours that someon else has been struck by lightning
but this cannot be confirmed

Large amounts of water, lots of debris to sort out in the morning.
