Title: Anyone affected by the storms in UK? Post by: Fastbrit on March 10, 2008, 09:28:27 am We were expecting the worst down in Cornwall but have escaped (so far). The river's high (5.5 metre Spring tide...) but could have been worse...

Ok, I'm bullshitting. The weather here sucks enough and you think it would be nice in California?! Title: Re: Anyone affected by the storms in UK?

Looks worse down there than it's been up here, a twig hit my windscreen on the way to work but other than that it was just a bit wet and windy with the odd flying fence panel. Get that Bug of yours to high ground and maybe leave the Alfa on a low lying bit of riverside frontage, now that it's been a bit damp it's not like :) Title: Re: Anyone affected by the storms in UK?

Post by: louisb on March 10, 2008, 18:18:31 pm Man that sucks. We get a lot of flooding in this area of Florida. I know what a pita it can be. Some where I have a pic of my '47 Ford coupe up on saw horses in my parent's driveway with water up to the bottom of the fenders. Fortunately, it never got in the house.
