Here at the soggy end of Swansea Bay things have changed over the last
few hours.
The Wife had a hospital appointment early this morning, it was raining
but quite warm, on the weat there the rain started to belt down.
When I went out at 1pm to collect our post the rain had stoped and it
was colder. upon checking it had droped from 52f to 42f and we had had
1.45 inches of rain. Water running everywhere, pouring in from the
fields above us, the ground just can't take any more.

Thinking of building an ark here at the wet end of Swansea Bay.

Just as bad here at the dry(er) end. Ground is also saturated but the
drains can't take it either. Some local road flooding which apparently
is due to overloaded sewers up the hill rather than blocked drains
down here. Which, of course, means the flooding is s***!

It's dry at the moment and the sky's cloudless with a lovely red
colour in your direction. So let's hope that tomorrow's dryer.

Urgling happily from the dryer end of Swansea Bay
because Santa's delivered a new weather station
so now I'll know how dry it is when it stops raining!
