You do get very localised intense rain storms - that is what derailled the train not so long ago in Scotland. Very hard to plan for a finance projects to cope with something that can be so localised, so intense and quite infrequent.
What are you talking about? Britain has reduced it’s CO2 output by half in the last ten years, as have most Western countries. Even if the whole world produced zero CO2 for decade we’d barely see any difference. This is a VERY long term effect, and there are plenty of scientists who think the climate change that has occurred so far is barely even noticeable.
Nope it isnt Mother Nature getting revenge. Not Gods Wrath for sin. Its the very beginning of an End Of An Age Magnetic Pole Shift. Not caused by any of mans activities. Man did not cause it and man cant mitigate it. In Fact it would still be happening even if man had never walked on the earth. It occurs about every 3600 years. It happened during Noahs Flood and Again during the Exidous. and many times before then. Moses was well educated and knew what was happening. He used that knowledge to dupe the masses into following him.
Not sure where you think Global Warming factors into this as London has always flooded due to its topography, antiquated sewage system and pipes and building practices since the 80's as to private developers "it's someone else's problems". Even if global cooling were happening, London would still flood. It has always flooded and will continue to flood. Tube stations are the biggest stories here as stations like Harrow-On-The-Hill (clues in the name) will never flood whereas Wimbledon, look on the contours, you'll see what I mean. I don't know how many people have been told about putting stuff down the drain but again "it's someone else's problem". Don't give councils the easy answer by calling it "global warming". That's why most people commenting here don't mention it. Most here are Londoners, like me and we've seen it all before.
There's not enough trees left to take the water out of the system. make the most of the novelty that comes from seeing deluges like this as it's only going to get worse and more frequent.
The UK has more tree cover now, than its had since the First World War. Trees were used to build ships and planes ect for the first war. Then many hedges and trees were removed to produce food in the 3 decades after the Second World War.
We have been warned. Higher populations then more resources used then greater pollution.. This little island is sinking fast and no where quicker than London. They'd better improve that Thames barrier sharpish.

You do get very localised intense rain storms - that is what derailled the train not so long ago in Scotland. Very hard to plan for a finance projects to cope with something that can be so localised, so intense and quite infrequent.
Thank the council who spend our money forcing us to pay for parking yet forget to clear drains 👍🤬
Someone is going to be getting a hefty water bill coming through the post very soon!
Oh no, i'm not used to seeing big countries experiencing something like this. I hope no one is hurt.
Hurt? By water..........that's like saying a water balloon has the capacity to break someones leg XD
And we still do nothing about the climate crisis. It’s insanity.
What are you talking about? Britain has reduced it’s CO2 output by half in the last ten years, as have most Western countries.
Even if the whole world produced zero CO2 for decade we’d barely see any difference.
This is a VERY long term effect, and there are plenty of scientists who think the climate change that has occurred so far is barely even noticeable.
Nope it isnt Mother Nature getting revenge. Not Gods Wrath for sin. Its the very beginning of an End Of An Age Magnetic Pole Shift. Not caused by any of mans activities. Man did not cause it and man cant mitigate it. In Fact it would still be happening even if man had never walked on the earth. It occurs about every 3600 years. It happened during Noahs Flood and Again during the Exidous. and many times before then. Moses was well educated and knew what was happening. He used that knowledge to dupe the masses into following him.
It's a natural cycle, don't fall for the hype.
London still crying about the football.
Imagine the Sun reporting this, they don’t believe in global warming.
Not sure where you think Global Warming factors into this as London has always flooded due to its topography, antiquated sewage system and pipes and building practices since the 80's as to private developers "it's someone else's problems".
Even if global cooling were happening, London would still flood. It has always flooded and will continue to flood. Tube stations are the biggest stories here as stations like Harrow-On-The-Hill (clues in the name) will never flood whereas Wimbledon, look on the contours, you'll see what I mean.
I don't know how many people have been told about putting stuff down the drain but again "it's someone else's problem".
Don't give councils the easy answer by calling it "global warming". That's why most people commenting here don't mention it. Most here are Londoners, like me and we've seen it all before.
@@Hertfordshire247 ...... I was having a pop at The Sun for reporting this.
As they clearly ignore anything that goes against there narrative.
@@roberthawkes2023 You missed his point. The primary factor here is not global warming, so The Sun reporting on this doesn’t mean anything.
no connection fool
that man is a legend for standing up for his rights. im glad he won in the end 👍
Thank you god for this amazing
which god ? there is 3002 officially worshipped today none stopped covid
As Much as my PAIN anf my TEARS....HOPE....
I wonder if this is a new covid variant too then?
No mate. It's flooding. Not hard.
@@thebrowns5337 it's a joke OP was joking
Keep calm and carry on.
"It's raining, call the police"
😂not laughing at the flood just the ole bill at the beginning
Yeah that was funny. I was wondering how far was far enough before the occupants remembered the car can reverse 😂😂
Oh dear, how sad, never mind. Lots of love, the North.
Chemtrails = elements in nano dust form. The so-called new clouds from planes.
I feel another lockdown coming
There's not enough trees left to take the water out of the system. make the most of the novelty that comes from seeing deluges like this as it's only going to get worse and more frequent.
The UK has more tree cover now, than its had since the First World War.
Trees were used to build ships and planes ect for the first war.
Then many hedges and trees were removed to produce food in the 3 decades after the Second World War.
We from Scotland apologise, its just the whole nation was pishing themselves laughing on Sunday night. 🏴🇮🇹😘😂
We have been warned. Higher populations then more resources used then greater pollution.. This little island is sinking fast and no where quicker than London. They'd better improve that Thames barrier sharpish.
There's always one smeg head who tries to drive through.
Its gods cry from the Footbal match
Hopefully someday London will just sink below the water like Atlantis and never be heard from again, let's hope that days not far away.
Agree and I'm in London
Are you kidding me! Love London!
So Londoners will have to migrate to all the other cities?! They are doing that already, are you sure this is what you want? Lol
@@SJ_Vibezz I'm hoping they go down with the ship.
@@peterwyndham5352 why mate you can't be a londoner
News they don't tell you, there are 50 plus volcanoes showing activity at the moment, it's unprecedented in recorded times
@@tgr5772 The World is doing great, the people are fckd though
That's what you get for putting trains in your sewage systems😁😁
Best wishes and sympathies from East Suffolk, the only place with water restrictions this year. Hope this mess can be cleared up quickly.
Don't panic ....it's just the End Times .....
No actually its just a little heavy rain. 🌧🌦⛈🌧
@@tgr5772 ... It isn't the end times my friend ... the world is certainly in for some major changes over the next 10 to 15 years in fact a complete change of everything we know at present but it definitely isn't the end times. Don't believe all the fear, yes things are going to be changing in a big way, but for the better ... you take care and be happy.
@@martinwebb1681 I enjoy your optimism. I hope it is the end times. Who wants to continue to live in this sh***y world?
@@tgr5772 ... The world isn't sh***ty at all the problem is with the way you perceive it, the world is a beautiful place and there are many millions of lovely people across the planet ... sad that you wish for the end times, you're here to learn and the world is what you make of it ... change yourself and your perception of the world will change as well. As I said before big changes are going to sweep the planet within the next 10 to 15 years and its going to be something profound a major shift and very sudden and society will change very fast and will be virtually unrecognisable to what it is at present ... be prepared because its going to change things forever in such a major way. You take care.
@@martinwebb1681 I shall remember your wise words the next time I see a beggar freezing to death on the streets of London. When they ask me for money I will tell them that the world is a beautiful place and is what you make of it.
You misunderstand end times. End times is when the world is reset, all the evil is removed from it and it is a nice place to live for everyone, not just for some.
Yes, I am fortunate, but I am surrounded by people who are not, and I cannot just ignore it and be selfish. So yes, it gets bad and more evil for a short while, but I, like other Christians, hope for end times, because then the world becomes a better place for all.
England is defiantly cursed first we had Covid, lockdown now the rain of heaven has fallen on us haha
That is a defiant statement.
When you concrete every driveway and patio every garden, along with housing many more people than the towns were designed for without upgrading the utilities, sure do you think the water is going to go, but I'm sure there will be some little Gretta claiming global warming climate crisis and something about lizard people.
Jings and the sun is shinning in Ayrshire with no clouds in sight
England: Its coming home!
God: i’ll give you something to go home
In Quran surah Al-A'raf verse 133 , chapter 7.
So We sent upon them the flood and locusts and lice and frogs and blood as distinct signs, but they were arrogant and were a criminal people.
In Quran : Surah Al imran : Verse : 184 - 186
Then if they Deny you [ O Muhammad ]
So were messengers Denied Before you
Who Brought Clear Proofs written ordinances
And Enlightening Scriptures
Every Soul will Taste Death
Every Soul will Taste Death
And Surely you will be paid your Rewards in full
Only on the Day of Resurrection So whoever is Kept away From the Fire 🔥
and Admitted to Paradise has Really Succeeded
The Worldly life is Nothing but
Enjoyment of delusion
Surely you will be tested in your Wealth in your Selves and you will hear from those
Who were given the Scripture Before you
And from those who Associate others with Allah
And from those who Associate others with Allah many hurtful things Many Hurtful things
But if u are Patient and Fear Allah indeed that is indeed that is of the matters [ worthy ] of
Determination
In Quran ; Surah Al Muminun : Verse 99 - 111
When Death comes to one of them
He Cries my Lord send me Back so that i may do so that i may do good in things i Neglected
Never it is only A. Word he is saying a Barrier stands behind such pepole
Until the very day they are resurrected so when the Horn is Blown no Relationship will be there
There will be no Relationship among them that day
Then those whose Scales of good deeds are heavy then the Such Pepole are the Successful ones
But those whose balance is light then they are the ones who harmed their own Selves
In the Hell they are to remain forever in the Hell they are to remain for ever
The Fire 🔥 will Sear their faces and their lips will be twisted in pain
It will be said were not my verses recited to U and still you rejected them
They will say O our Lord our wretchedness overcame Us. And we went astray
Our Lord get Us out from here if we return to evil then we shall really be Evildoers
He Allah will say stay in it humiliated and do not Speak to me
Indeed there was a Group of my servant's who used to say Our Lord who used to say Our Lord
We Believe so forgive us and have mercy upon us You are the most Merciful of all
But you made fun of them until they made you forget my Remembrance while you used to laugh at them Today i have rewarded them for their patience
For their patience for Their Patience they are the Attainers of [ Success]
In Quran : Surah Qaf : Verse 38-45
And certainly we Created the heavens and the earth and what is Between them in six days
And we were not even touched with fatigue so be patient of what they say
And Glorify the Praises of your Lord before Sunrise and glorify the Praises of your lord before Sunrise and before Sunset
And Glorify him in the night and after the Prayers and Listen
On the day when the caller will call from a near place the day when they shall hear the Blast in Truth
That is the day of going out of the Graves it is Certainly we who give life and cause death
And to Us is the Final Return on the day when the earth will be torn apart letting them rush out that gathering will be easy for Us.
We are well aware of what they say and you are not Required to force things on them
And you are not Required to force things on them
But remind by the Quran whoever fears my Warning
@@shakyhussain5946 what does all of this mean?
Jesus is probably coming back quite soon, like in 8 years or something.
It's coming home, it's coming home, flash flood coming home
This is just all the tears from losing in the finals...
Lmao
So, something wrong with the sewage system then?
