Here in Gatineau has been crazy, hot as hell and in two seconds it changes to a freaking heavy rain only to be over 10 minutes later and gets extreme hot and humid...later at night we get a storm with lightnings and all.

I live in Sheffield,and we got hit BAD!!

People were having to be evacuated by RAF helicpopters and everything.....loads and loads of people evacuated from theie homes had to be put up in the Sheffield Arena...unfortunately no bands were scheduled to play lol

A football stadiums pitch is completely under water..(Sheffield Wednesday)..about 6 people have died,including a young boy,who got swept away by the floods...its basically a catastrophe for certain areas...im not that far away...but we were lucky

Its going to cost over a Billion pounds to get sorted...

The thing that pissed me off most?

Obviousley its horrible news,and people were wanting to know all the details...so,on GMTV,our Breakfast news show....they were all serious and reporting and stuff,then,they just totally broke away for a Breaking story........ Paris fucking Hilton!!!

That little Dipshit was coming out of prison...so they left all the important news,just to see her walking out,and to her car....i was FUMING!!!

They did get loads of complaints,and had to apologise the next morning

It sounds like the UK is just getting hit hard with rain from what you are posting here. Is it normally this bad at this time of year???

well, here in sunny aussieland.... oh wait, its winter here, haha!!! the weather here is cold and miserable and is supposed to rain for the next week, not that we dont need the rain, we are in the midst of one of the worst droughts ever recorded. however, good old victoria is being flooded away in some parts, but not in the areas where the water will filter into the murray river.

the commercial irrigators who rely on water from the murray have had their allowance cut to 1%, meaning the cost of fresh fruit and vegetables (and eventually canned and frozen) will rise dramatically. meat prices are already ridiculous.

lepermessiah, that stadium, is that the one where heaps of people were crushed to death back in the late '80's? they showed it on the news here, and yes, we got the paris hilton breaking news too... like any of us give a shite...

forgot to mention the bulk carrier thats parked itself on a beach in new south wales during a severe storm a couple of weeks ago... http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/sav ... 44139.html

No not normally this bad. We normally have some sort of summer

I blame Glastonbury, it always rains when its on. There wasn't one last year and we had a red hot summer, Then its back on again and it rains. Its a known thing over here that Glastonbury will be a mudbath. Its his fault :blink:

normally this time of year its warm, very sunny.

we have had 5 weeks of solid torrential rain. a bridge over a river has been washed away in ludlow, half a house next to the bridge has also been washed away. most yorkshire is under about 3 foot of flood water at the moment. even in the winter it doesn't rain this much, and we are in summer now.


the world is ending we're all going to die.... arrrghhh.... :P
