Nae idea - but I suspect it would need measuring in feet rather than inches !
There have been some substantial falls on higher ground in Northumberland and the Scottish Borders.

Our wind problems have been no worse than a typical kebab night in Clacton

What a horrible site to see
What I can't believe is how strong that glazed door is to withstand the pressure of all that water against it!

Seriously though, I really feel for them, and with meteorologists predicting it will get worse year on year, the government need to act to put plans in actiontto avoid this happening again.
