However, while a one in twenty year significant event could happen, he
thought this unlikely and further added that he thought it wouldn't bring
all that much more rain than we were having now.

We usually get some excitement from the projected path from an old TC

Is it really a one in twenty event: presumably this is based on
Charlie ?
It has been a glorious day up here in Bedford - went for a drive up to
the Fens and there was a stiff but warm breeze
