Luckily Southampton missed all that rain as all we had down here was a light shower in the morning.
The rest of the day was warm and humid but a bit breezy by evening.

Re: Im getting worried !!
No Adam its not, we get mini storms but this one was the worst, a friend of mine was flooded inside the house, she had to throw everything out from downstairs, she said her house stinks, her car is also a write off, i got off lightly!
Trudy, i hear the Moor packed up and left on Thursday night, thank god for that, they bring this rain every year with them

Re: Im getting worried !!
I feel really sorry for all the people who's property got flooded, its bad enough if you live on a flood plain and it happens now and then, but this was unprecedented, I live in Jesmond and even Osborne Road was flooded , just weird. Some parts of Heaton were many feet deep. One of my husbands colleagues is in the same situation as your friend along with many others, insurance claims are certainly going to be up.
The Hoppings had to close for obvious reasons , imagine being on the Big Wheel when that storm hit. The moor was a complete quagmire before, now its like a battle field. They have not left, in fact I would think they may extend their visit due to loss of revenue. I drove past yesterday and it was very quiet, they should move it to July/Aug, but as hubby says it would lash down then instead
