"At least 78 people have been killed after torrential rains leading to flash floods swept through parts of the south Russian Krasnodar region. Reports said the floods came at night without warning, catching local residents by surprise. Crude oil shipments from the Black Sea port of Novorossiisk have suspended. Officials say emergency teams have been sent from Moscow by plane and helicopter. Television pictures showed people scrambling onto their rooftops to escape. At least 67 people including a 10-year-old boy died in the town of Krymsk, at least nine in Gelendzhik and two in Novorossiisk. Hundreds of properties have been flooded and the Krasnodar-Novorossiisk road was cut. The transport system in the region is said to have collapsed. A statement by the Krasnodar regional administration said altogether 13,000 people had been affected by the floods." |

Can you tell me which parts of Britain have been devastated by flooding in the last few day, Now we know the main stream media exaggerate but if we go to the font of non spun truth ukmo would have us all building arks. So where are the floods and how greater an area of the UK has been affected. As I'v said UKMO had weather warnings for London and the SE http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/w...?regionName=SE and so far three drops all day-do you really think that warrants a yellow warning telling people to be aware of raindrops? |

Just give me the flood areas and not some silly bugger cop out by directing me to google. |

Just give me the flood areas and not some silly bugger cop out by directing me to google. "what regions of the UK were affected by floods in summer 2012?" Further refining means a county by county search. You can then post your research online so it becomes a useful service that nobody else has thought to bother with. Wouldn't that be more constructive than what you are asking others to do for you? It might also mean you have less time to kill by ranting. |

But there was flooding and misery and I am aware that livestock died in Devon. Also in Devon the EA spokesman said that it would have been a lot lot worse had it not been for the flood works undertaken over the years. I am also convinced the the MetO warnings did help people. We should be celebrating how well we handle flooding sistuations nowadays not knocking the hard work of good folk all the time. Yes the warnings were overcooked in places but they did say that there was a lot of uncertainty and that the areas were a best shot at the time. Will -- |

Will -- I don't seem to have any data for that region via the synops to see what rainfall totals were. Both Krasnodar(33m) and Svetlograd(134m) haven't reported for sometime and other locations in the region don't show anything of significance, so I can only imagine it was a very local event.
