Hull's on the coast or an estuary, isn't it? Looks like just a high tide to me

Doesn't look too good

I can't remember it raining this hard for this long before - BBC forecast indicates it's set to keep going for a while too.

Ooh can I have some of that please?

Its 42c here in Budapest and I think I'm going to melt.

There are some advantages to living in the driest part of the country (East Anglia). Average annual rainfall 20 - 22 inches, officially categorised as semi-desert.

Still peeing down a bit now and again - and a house in the village got hit by lightning last week - but 30 minutes after each downpour the roads are dry again!

(and we haven't had a hosepipe ban for years - they know how to look after their water round here!)

Dunno, York has a history of flooding though, seen some very sad sights today that makes you realise how lucky we are at times..........

We have a river running down the road, some have one flowing through there house, not nice.

I remember being of pre school age and hitting a flooded River Foss on the Huntington Road at night in a mini cooper, and before you all start it was my Dad driving

I have seen Cliffords Tower as a virtual island due to flooding

HELP

Just arrived home after a day trying to stop the flood waters filling the factory and I find I now have a fully floating floor in the living room.
everywhere around this area is under at least six inches of smelly water.
Just putting the sofa and telly on the dining table and thats all I can do untill the water goes.
At least the cars are in a safe place

They dont call me Kipper for nowt,
Splish splash to you all.

Gypsyville

Sorry joelp. Idont know if that area has been hit but I can tell you that I have a pal who lives in Pickering road who has lost all his Koy carp when his garden flooded and that is just across the park from Gypsyville.
Generaly the whole of Hull is very bad.
Good luck and get the insurence renewed.

Pretty depressing stuff!

Peeps, just as a warning to those who may need to drive in such conditions - bear in mind that 4" of water moving at 20-25 mph will wash your car off the road.

Yep, four inches of water!
