Couldn't agree more Iceberg, the Stour at Longham is going to crash over the road without doubt now. It's not listed as a severe warning area, and I think the problem is, that all that live in that area, are being very blasé about it, "it wont happen", "never reaches the houses here", "there is no severe warning" etc etc, well I think there is a very high possibility that it will this time round. I sincerely hope it doesn't! EDIT: Rapodo excepted in that case, I know a couple that live almost opposite and they don't seem concerned at all, they think I'm nuts

My roof is badly damaged, got assessor coming out on Monday fingers crossed. Roof leaked and has gone straight through my ceiling, nice hole now, my main concern now is the water tank, don't want that falling through my ceiling. Mother Nature, not much I can do about it, just glad to have insurance, I'll still embrace the weather as the extremes it offer really is my passion/boarder line obsession. Let's face it, there's nout we can do about it, so may as well embrace it. Lashing it down here now, channel radar looks very lively!

Well I've been down to Sandbanks at the peak high tide and there is no beach left at all, very impressive, the bay road has flooded where the sea has breached the sea wall.I have photo's/vids that I will attempt to upload later. It really blows my mind how stupid some people are. There was a gentleman with 2 young daughters, perhaps 7 & 10 years of age, and he was allowing them to run right at the waters edge by the chain ferry between sandbanks and swanage, and get sprayed by the waves. I could not stand there and let it continue, I stopped my car and told him, that if his children were to slip in, there is a very good chance he wouldn't see them again. to which he replied, "they will be fine", this angered me somewhat, and I told him that even on a good day, if they were to fall in there, just as the tide is about to exit Poole Harbour, they would be gone, and it was completely irresponsible, he reluctantly called them back from the waters edge. Completely unbelievable behavior, he seemed mythed that I stopped to tell him my feelings, but I couldn't have lived with myself had I read a bad story in the paper tomorrow, especially having young kids of my own. Anyway, It's pretty wild out there and really is incredible to watch, just use common sense for crying out loud. Cracking shower passed over a little while ago, hail, Thunder & lightning and torrential rain. Enjoy if you can, stay safe, rant over
