Well Cumbria got hammered again with the rain last night and parts of Carlisle (where I live is flooded). I'm not near the flooded areas but the power station is. Last time it got knocked out for 3 days. So If I'm not online you know why.
<a href="http://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/storm ... rPath=home" target="_blank">Here</a> is the latest report from our local with some photos. If you look at the picture with the camper van in it, the river Caldew has burst it's banks and closed the Carlisle to Glasgow/Edinburgh railway. The water has crossed the railway lines to get to the car park. Right out of view at the back of that photo is Carlisle's power station.
The river Caldew merges with the river Eden about a 1/4 of a mile if that behind the same photo, and the Eden passes by the power station.

Well looks like we're due another bad 36-48 hours worth of rain fall, according the local radio the north east is due 60-100+mm...
