Monsoon

Post by seb421 »

Sooooooooo who's house is 3 feet in water then?

Never seen rain like i did last night on way home from work!

That was wombles mental i couldn't see more than 50m on the motorway thank god i got those pilot road 3's

Finished work early at 1am but it was so hard i thought ahhh it will die down, waited half hour before setting off and it hadn't calmed down at all

It was like riding in a never ending puddle thumbs up for for those tires :) the old pilot road would spin up in conditions no where near as bad as last night, even hitting large puddles of surface water on the motorway didn't get them spinning, moneys well spent

Me too, heard on the news that an 18 year old had last control of his motorbike last night in the rain and lost his life, poor bugger.

those winds was strong, i wouldn't like to be on a 125cc in those conditions myself, can notice the difference on the storm and the blade in a side wind so a 125 must be easy to blow about :eek2

That's just outrageous. 8O Lets hope all those caravans are insured for floods/natural disasters.

With the weather the way it is you might have a heat wave next week to dry it all out and then there will be a hose pipe ban.

That's not good! Hope all your family are up the hill and safe! Though it is funny to see the bloke in the green land rover with the high air intake managed to misjudge his capabilities and get it drowned as well...knob!
