Subject: Thanks. I sent Ian and Mike an email, checking on them. I can't find anything on TV about it either. How come America isn't reporting this? [Re: Visionary] Posted Fri Nov 09, 2007 at 12:36:17 am EST (Viewed 335 times) | |

I can't speak for Shep, but the rest of us are quite a way inland. Ian lives half-way up the pennines (and I do mean vertically), and Xander is on the wrong side of the country. Shep is on a different landmass altogether. I was probably at the most risk as I am just north of the Thames, but the Thames Barrier was designed for this sort of thing. The warning levels are much lower down at the Essex/Thames Estury end. Since I got into work OK we can assume that the barrier worked. The biggest danger is to the costal and low-lying areas, which is why the Norfork Broads are cited in the report. We have actually had quite a few floods recently, but these were due to excessive rain rather than a storm tide. I wouldn't expect the American Media to be reporting it. The latest news is here. | ||

Since it was more of a "flood warning" than a "flood happened" story as of last night, they didn't dwell on it. | ||

Though from what Mum told me this morning my Great Aunt, who has just moved house, is lucky to have done so as where she used to live is right where it's worse. Unfortunately I had to conclude that, from what I heard, there is not enough reason for them to cancel school in Barnsley today, and the schools seem to beleive me. Still, we had a fire drill during French. | ||
