" LONDON, March 10 (UPI) -- Severe gales drenched Britain
Monday, canceling flights, flooding roads, disrupting transit
systems and leaving thousands without power.
Forecasters warned the country to brace itself for a second
line of gales of 80 mph Monday night into Tuesday morning, the Daily
Mail reported. No deaths were reported. "

[ ... 'Severe gales *drenched*?; that's a new one! ]


And we were buffeted by heavy rain as well.
