Got wet inside the Dixons theatre tonight as the water started pouring
through the roof, but the show went on ~ stiff uper lip British :-)
Thunder and rain could be heard inside the theatre, it was that intense.

The London Road lots of flooding with shops inundated.

Finally, navigated our way back home along the A127 lots of surface
water. Just restarted my computers as the power had gone off and Davis
recorded 25.8mm of rain in the hour. Just looking at my 15 minute
intervals, 14.8mm fell in 15 minutes.

Oh well, bang goes that dry September :-)
