A fair few rumblings in Littlehampton and the odd flashes of lightening, but nothing as biblical as it seems in Worthing/Hove!

 

[algie]

Really going off here in Crawley. Loud bangs and flashes. I can hear dogs barking which is strange because they normally shit themselves.

 

[Napier's Knee]

Worthing has survived - just. that was a really really bad one

 

[Vicar!]

Worthing Station under a foot of water. Passengers stranded on middle platforms and being advised not to wade through the water due to potential electric problems. More lightening on the way.

Stopped for the moment in Portslade. Great start to the week- I knew the weather would change when I saw the Express Headline on Friday saying we were in for another month of heatwave and record temperatures.

Uckfield taking a serious hit now.

 

[TSB]

Various leaks in the ceiling of my top-floor flat. The bathroom one is particularly impressive as it was, for a time, pooling in the light fixtures and making the lights flick on and off at random.
Emergency roofers have now put tarpaulin over us so should be ok temporarily.
No rivers quite like that instagram round here.

Quite a nice day in London...

 

[The Birdman]

Haywards Heath is taking a downpour lightning only few miles away fire engines racing up and down the road I would suggest stay at home unless essential to go out!

 

[Guinness Boy]

This is Portslade apparently.

Well that was fun. Shot out of bed at ten to six by a huge flash of lightening and seagulls being hit by hailstones. Ice in next door's front garden, hail on our hearth from it getting down the chimney. That photo was taken exactly where the kids normally go on the school run. Friends in Elm Road have been completely flooded.

A good storm here in Crawley with lots of heavy rain. A classic case of a convergence line where storms are very slow moving. They will eventually die away!

 

[Badger]

Nothing like a dramatic start to Monday morning, it was exciting hearing the claps of thunder getting closer. I was pleasantly surprised my Brighton to London Bridge train was running on time* and I've made it to my desk.


*when I say on time, I mean the obligatory 10 minute delay because one of the doors wouldn't close.

Is brighton to gatwick trains still ok?
