Flood Defences

[NorthernRaider]

Went to Durham this evening to get a lead for the laptop, never seen flooding like this before, many pools reached the top of my transits tyres, spotted a Citroen and Ford floating in one pool so turned round and went via another route, huge acrages of land are at least 2 ft deep in water, many roads are completely away for over 1/2 a mile with 6 inch deep water. The A689 near here has become Lake Wynyard. So pleased I live on hillto but one of wifeys colleagues lives up Weardale so place near Stanhope and shes telling my missus she thinks her house could be inundated this evening.
