Yeah its not usually like this, where I am, this has never happened to us before. This June is the wettest ever on record, and we got 20% of the annual rainfall just this month.

the flood waters are contaminated, now containing sewerage etc. A water treatment works has been flooded and hence it is contaminated and cannot serve water to the area and hence in some areas water supply has been turned off. those areas are being given bottled water and water bowsers are being placed on streets for people to access clean water. the problem being that some twats have been pissing in the bowsers so no one can use the water. Also in some areas poeple have been monopolising the water bowsers and actually selling on the water they are getting.

it has to be said that the floods is only effecting about 4 or 5 towns in the uk. the rest of us are just very wet from the rain but not flooded!

its been dry today though. i even manged to cut the lawn.

It's been damn hot and mostly dry here in Florida. We still have yet to really get into our regular afternoon thunderstorm pattern.

I just saw this quote and laughed my ass off. Is 'wingnuts' a popular nickname for Charles over in England? :lol:

Well, it's kind of OK where I live. No rain, usual summer hot days etc.

But, Dubrovnik is fucked up right now. There's fires and there's strong wind, so the fire is spreading rather fast. A shelter has been opened, and the news say that there could be some evacuation (but the news inflates everything, so who knows what to believe).

What I know is that a couple of buds of mine live down there and here are some pics:

That "snow" on the last pic is actually ashes.
