porsche boats
 
Lots of flooding here. made a mistake of going for a sunday drive.
Had to make several diversions as some roads impassable and had to make U turns.
Here is an excerpt of the drive - just a couple of smaller puddles.
Not very exciting sorry!

Pretty countryside. Must be a nice drive on a sunny summer day. What kind of camera are you using?

tomc88 02-09-2014 09:06 AM

yes weather is grim - but I must drive it.
camera is blackvue DR500WG

it's really a dash cam to catch bad drivers. it's 'HD' but quality way off a goPro.

I have a gorpo and thats much better of course, but they blackvue is designed for you to leave in your car.

the blackue records GPS info and time stamps the video

Is the central UK usually so wet or is this new?

And nobody noticed that all of them are going wrong way?

tomc88 02-10-2014 05:02 AM

it rains for about 50% of days
however, this Jan/Feb has been the wettest since records began (about 100 years)
and there are many burst rivers, flooded homes and fields.

lots of flood barriers installed. many rural road around me are shut or impassable
