Lets see your storm photos then
Been a bad day in swanage today with waves flooding the town centre! Roads have become part of the beach & streets are rivers! I got these photos...

& I found this on Facebook of Portland!!

I think this is on the train the day before although it doesn't say what date it was posted.

Country's full of 'em! If you watch the news, there's loads of t1ts just driving through huge pools of seawater and waves and spray. I'd be careful about used cars for sale in coastal areas

So unlike you to be stupid where water's involved.

Incidentally, how come there's no footage of a jet skier going along the avenue?
