Went to bed early (10PM) in RH20 accompanied by massive thunderstorm but NO rain.
Got up 6 AM to get Sunday paper and it must have come down in the wee small hours as there are pools of water at the side of the road. 1st rain in at least 4 weeks, maybe longer. Apparently a few more rumbles...
Had to drop off some work gear for recalibration in Shoreham around midday, absolute stairrods - went to Sainsbury's to fuel up a few minutes later and lots of the car park access roads under water.
At time like these I'm glad I live on top of a hill and not the bottom!
Think we need WEEKS of this to get things back to normal levels in reservoirs.
Chastised Mrs Jakarta for mowing our lawn yesterday, she obviously knows far more about the garden than I do...
Just been out chucking water into pots and planters etc. here at Jakarta Towers in RH20.
Seems rather Close, think we'll get some rain if not thunder & lightning later on...
