That's nothing, wait until the 2 day pass, where the first lot of surface runoff hits in hard from higher up. With baked ground, you're looking at about 24-36 hours later. That's when the real flooding will start.

thats how the Boscastle flood started.

Spot on. Anyone looking at flooding should start moving things upstairs tonight, or right now.
