Bloody hell.

That also happened on the Irwell a few years ago. And in Cockermouth a few years before that.

The biggest most biblical storms and floods I've ever seen was when we lived other there. Seen the floods remove huge swathes of roads because they were built over natural barrancs ( drainage streams from the mountains )

Yes agreed.

Also it's going to be an enormous insurance bill, just in vehicles, never mind property.
