Default [WR] Thundery Leeds

Ill second that Brian, I have never before witnessed rain as heavy as this
in Leeds, my front lawn is under 1/2 foot of water and the drains simply
cannot cope with the sheer amount of water.
Reports are coming in that tarmac is being forced up on roads all over Leeds
as well.

Certainly a memorable night is this!!
