gaggle64 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Here's a thread about the bleedin' weather, especially since most of the UK seems to be flooding on a daily basis. Up here in Scotland it's just been straight up grey and depressing for weeks now, with only a couple of days reprieve at all. No flooding though luckily. Mind you, it would at least break the monotony a bit. God it's getting depressing. Where's this summer I hear so much about then, eh?
Ant-Shimmin Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Liverpool is just wet, damp, cold, windy and pissing down. Don't worry though we are long over due a heat wave of some sorts so fingers crossed!
Shorty Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Man I hope the train lines don't get flooded again. Last week I had to get a bus from Sheffield to Doncaster then wait in Donny for 45 minutes for a train. Really don't want to do that again >.<
Strider Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Rain, rain, rain... i went out today taking pictures of the floods and was pretty shocked. Close to where i live (Called Pleasley Vale if you care) has a lttle stream running through it... not any more. The water has burst the banks and is halfway up trees. The wooden thing you see is a bridge, on the plus side it looks very green. The left side is where the stream was. Copied it from Meeningless post. Don't want to write a new one.
Letty Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Its a lovely summer's day here, with no wind or rain whatsoever. Mmmmmmm...God I love living here.
Slaggis Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Part of my towns flooded, its been raining now for almost 16 hours. Bluddy Britain.
MunKy Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 I'd rather this continued than a heat wave. Or if a heat wave does happen, I hope I'm at sea. I can't stand being too hot. Bring on the autumn/winter!
gaggle64 Posted June 25, 2007 Author Posted June 25, 2007 Hull has declared a State of Emergency. That's not something you're going to hear often.
Slaggis Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Hull has declared a State of Emergency. That's not something you're going to hear often. State of emergency? Its makes it sound like there's some sort of nuclear war.
Fierce_LiNk Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 It's pissing down here in "sunny" Brighton. I was carrying a suitcase in the rain from one house to the other yesterday, and got drenched.
Strider Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 A Humberside Fire Service spokesman said the man was trapped by his foot amid rising water levels. That must be the most scariest way to die.
gaggle64 Posted June 25, 2007 Author Posted June 25, 2007 Yeah, poor bugger. Hope they can free him quickly.
Retro_Link Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Yep sum flooding here aswell 2day! Rained so much last night!
conzer16 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Here in the Sunny South East of Ireland it has finally stopped raining for the first day in about 6!!! We got pummelled by rain this past week but i live on a hill so no flooding near me. As far as i know the rivers around are swelled to breaking point so thank god for the lull in the precipitation!!
KKOB Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Birmingham's alright ^_^ no floods round me and no rain so far today.
EEVILMURRAY Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Best time to break out the Lilos and get your money's worth. Imagine that, floating past your neighbours house, cocktail in hand. "Y'alright Keith?" Awesome. If only it was that flooded here.
gaggle64 Posted June 25, 2007 Author Posted June 25, 2007 Shit. The man trapped in the drain didn't make it. Poor sod.
Strider Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 I bet we wouldn't be complaining if it was winter and this was snow... well i wouldn't be anyway.
Roostophe Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Birmingham's alright ^_^ no floods round me and no rain so far today. Good ol' Brummagem never gets flooded, the canal never bursts its banks, we're always okay.
Shorty Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Damnit I spoke to soon >.< the trains are down to Sheffield. I hate buses! At least I have my new video iPod for teh journey.... Edit: ooh the forcast does say 'sunny intervals' for tomorrow though, my day of travel. *Crosses fingers*.
Guest Jordan Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Its been pissing it down all day here, really bad wind too. Upside is, we live in a valley with alot of untouched land, so we never get floods because the water just soaks into the soil.
Coolness Bears Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 It hasn't been raining that much where i am only a few drizzles of rain through out the day, nothing torrential like some of you a are experiencing. It hasn't even been that windy but is colder than usual.
Guest Stefkov Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 It started raining around 3 this morning and didn't stop until 3 this afternoon. Then the wind blowing now is making the tress move quite a lot.
DomJcg Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 its sunny nows!! twas raining abit yesterday, but a couple weeks ago it really poured for like 3 days and the river flooded (basically looked like the pictures in this thread)
Cube Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 Dull weather. Much, much better than a boiling hot day. I hate the heat.
