London Under Water

When I saw this I though: WOW! Then I read the story and once again I thought: WOW!

(I copied a picture from this page on NoComment News)

Well, the story is as follows:

Whilst this picture may be from the imagination of Richard Doyle, after the events of previous weeks throughout England it may not be that far from reality. With this year having been the wettest Summer on record more than 387mm (15.2in) of rain fell in England and Wales. This compounds research from Newcastle University last year which suggested that rain intensity has doubled in the UK over the last 40 years due to climate change.The image depicts iconic central London landmarks such as the Houses of Parliment and the London Eye essentially in the Thames. The image is from the aptly named film "Flood" which will be released in August.

(I want to thank How To Save Energy Blog reported to be the source of the story).

Now I'm seriously thinking of the first things to do if there's water in your house. Any ideas, dear readers?

Floods in the UK - citizen pictures of latest news

I personally believe that mass media make scandal of any happening they cover. This is what happened to Floods in the UK. Well, yes, it looked wet. And flooding was in the houses. But people are still content with their lives and water has gone. Aren't they?

(NoComment News issued a special report of Floods in UK: it's worth seeing. )

PS if you think it lacks accuracy, you've been there and everything was much worse ... Why wouldn't you show these floods through your eyes? Submit photos to NoComment News.

Flood in the UK

Wanted to see by yourself what's happening in the UK where the country is flooded?

NoComment News is of service!

Here's one of the stories by NoComment News group contributor:

"Quite the centre of watersports! The street outside my house (the rivers Ouse & Foss are more usually to be found in the top right hand corner of the shot).

Blue Bridge Lane has been flooded for the second time in a week and this time a flotilla of canoes are out in the late evening sunshine".

More pictures are coming ...
