A reporter from Look North was just on BBC News 24 saying that there is serious flooding there in south Yorkshire. The fire service has been inundated with calls, many people are trapped in their homes and the scale of it so bad that they are unable to get camera crews out there. Still raining heavily too in places.

It's sad for those people involved, but it happens everytime in this country. Building in towns and cities is so dense the rainwater has no where to go. I feel there is a major threat of flash flooding later in the day further south from torrential thundery showers.

[Thunder Snow]

Raining heavy here at the moment, loads of surface water. No flooding as yet, but the rain shoiuld start to ease off from now.

[Intrepid]

Quite alot of flooding on the roads here, some have had to be closed. Ive noticed a few drains overflowing too and some fields are flooded. Still raining heavily now, as it has been since yesterday.

Looks like a bit of a respite for a while here judging by the latest radar

Still raining but only lightly now.

Done a rough search on the other threads but saw nothing to suggest if the current system that is affecting us is remnants of TS Barry (NW Barry thread) that went through florida the other week? Just a thought due to how slow moving and slack things have been in the Atlantic of late?

Yep, they are very large...however it is notable they are mostly over the Pennines regions and high ground and in the west. Nothing unusual really.

No, it's not Barry. Barry moved up the east coast of USA and then dissapated over Canada has an extratropical cyclone at the beginning of June.

I already made a thread there, why not use that one?

[Eugene]

In Coventry it's been the Wettest June Day since records began in 1892

Second wettest day ever recorded since records began too

Almost 70 mm and i think some places in warwickshire with no rainfall measuring gauges recorded even more i'm sure of it

I saw some cars stuck in flooded roads, incredible 24 hrs really and there are more heavy thundery showers around now too.

I just watched some skynews of those floods, how come no one is getting that concerned about those intense t-storms moving north to the already badly affected areas? Surely they will worsen the situation?
