Default Brum flooding

Just been trapped in the indoor market in Brum, torrential rain almost
continuous thunder at 1010. The water was running down the Bull Ring
steps. I phoned my wife and it was almost dark in Dorridge. Many of the
market traders went and had a look at the deluge, and a quick fag.

Back here in Dorridge, another small band passing through. Then the radar
looks clear.

Default Brum flooding

spoke too soon. An absolute deluge here as I type. I have never seen rain so
heavy here in Dorridge. All my gutters and the neighbours are not coping
with the rain rate. My patio has never flooded till now.
We are on a slope, I hate to think what lower houses are like at the bottom
of the road.

The rain in Birmingham has even made it into the Daily Wail, not quite sure
about the 'apocalyptic' bit though
