I was along that way last week and thought the same.

This is the sluice by Jackson's Boat about an hour ago.

Nice photo, hope your endz stay dry. The road that always floods and always has a car stuck in it is obviously flooded with a car in it over here, but otherwise fine, the planters haven't washed away.

Non locals should note that this photo smells of biscuits.

hope your endz stay dry.

According to this our ground floor will flooded overnight. I hope they're wrong, obvs, but am moving bikes upstairs just incase.

I hope everyone stays dry this evening

Sandbags ready!

All this snow has to help right?

I used to live 2 mins away from that bridge, over the other side of Cringle Park. Still miss the biscuit smell sometimes...

I still get a hint of it when the wind blows the right way, years ago I used to live really close and got hungry every time I walked outside.

I've never bought as many biscuits as I did when I lived there.

Whoever the fuck decided that taxis count as public transport?

I've been overruled in favour of more practical action.

I think/hope so. It's hard to believe this will be under 3m more water by early morning

Snow banks to protect your doors, build them high and thick.

Graph suggests it is peaking. 3m on top of this would mean places upstream would be struggling already I reckon?

Littl'un is out there now with a shovel.

Fingers crossed you're spared, rhb.

Spare Rhb?

It's now really too late this eve to be flooding this thread with a flurry of puns.

Not a deluge of watery wittering

We've had knock from the police. The EA advise we evacuate. Expecting additional 5m water by 3-4am. Mind-blowing that this isn't causing more trouble upstream.

Fuck

Good luck, hope it’s not as bad as they are suggesting.
