As above really, anyone been affected by it?

i havnt personally, despite living in aberystwyth town itself, theres a few roads been closed off! this is literally about half a mile, if that, from my house!


(not my pic btw, robbed from fb)

been out and about up local villages on the flooded back roads in this



yes its that low, but i didnt get stuck! hopefully going out for a play in a mates 4x4 later on!

amongst the fun and games, its actually really serious, there has been horrendus property damage, if theres any local Ph's who need a hand, ill be more than happy to lend a hand!

my FIL's boat broke its moorings after being hit by a stray tree in the harbour, almost got washedout to sea if it wasnt for the RNLI, i spoke to the harbourmaster who said that further down the coast in aberaeron, 5 boats had been washed out to sea!
even as i type, the sound of sirens fills the air!

I've got a place in Tal-y-bont. Hoping it hasn't been washed away!
