Storm Bella arrived just a few days after some torrential rain here in the UK. Many places suffered flooding.Here's a short clip from my Mavic along the Tiffey Trail here in Wymondham, Norfolk.
There was an applicaion to build houses on these fields too!

Similar flooding down south Essex too.  Although we never got the wind we were expecting.

Revealing shots!  Do the planners never learn?  Don't build on a flood plain!  Insurance nightmare.

Thank you, and no I don't think they do...the builders build, take their profits and close down the company, so as to avoid any repercussions...

Quite!  It's been going on for decades.  Maybe you can do the same  flight in a couple of years' time showing flooded houses
