Meanwhile continued .....
back in the workshop we spent Midnight to 2AM bailing out where the rain came in UNDER THE WALLS!. Due to have another storm come through again tonight. Wellies on again.  I wonder how the Jurassic coast is fareing?  Has it withstood the storms?
  • The Environment Agency issued a severe flood warning - meaning "danger to life" - in Weymouth, Dorset, where the public were advised to avoid the "extremely dangerous" Preston Beach area.
But had they got wet enough? Apparently Not.-

More gales and heavy rain are set to hit the UK as the Environment Agency warns of further significant disruption from floods in southern England. Many rivers remain swollen after storm damage caused power cuts and travel delays. More than 50 flood warnings are in place for England and Wales. About 1,000 homes in south-east and south-west England have been flooded.

Britain braced for more storms



Britain is preparing for more heavy rain and 70mph winds as the Environment Agency warns of further significant disruption from flooding in parts of southern England.

 

 

Thought for the day:- We may try to defend the coast from the sea but we can't stop the water coming out of the sky.
