I have been Googling for info on the Lynmouth flood and this rain

The BBC repeated their documentary on Radio 4 this afternoon a 1:30

13:30 Sunday Best: Document
In the run up to a new series of the award winning investigative history
series Document, Sunday Best revisits five notable programmes from

previous
years. Presented by Mike Thomson.

5/5. The Day They Made It Rain

On 15 August 1952, in the picturesque Devon village of Lynmouth, a

devastating
flood cost 34 lives. It rained so hard it didn't seem entirely natural and
some said it wasn't.

Document looks at new evidence on the imprecise science of cloud seeding.

It
reveals who had secrets to keep an what the implications are now for us

all.

You can hear it again here;

Where, exactly?


Sorry, I thought I had referenced the sound file. You will find it at "Sunday
Best: Document" on that page. It is under S.

Cheers, Alastair.
