  • AMAZING VIDEO TAKEN 25 JUNE 07 IN SHEFFIELD. Places filmed include Ecclesfield, Chapletown, Meadowhall, Thorncliffe Industrial Estate and the last part of the video is Brightside Lane just off Upwell Street. The water on Brightside lane was around Six foot deep at the height of the flooding. The Police, who were stood behind me, had a call saying that a driver was still trapped in his car! The tractor went to look!

    The day that i moved into my home in Sheffield.
    The first thing i saw when i had plumbed me TV in, was calendar news video of a rescue helicopter above the wicker. Young lad died up millhouses way.
    What an awful day.

      @@N0t_R1l3Y Could be as bad , the rain hasn't stopped all night and still pissing down now . and when it does stop it can still be running down off the hills for days after so tomorrow will be a shock .

      What happened today is nothing comparable to that of 2007... It was national... I was caught up in Gloucestershire first, and then again in Sheffield!

    I was in Lloyd's Gym that day. We heard an almighty racket, stepped out to see sea rescue chopper hovering over some industrial units, rescuing people. Carlisle St was gridlocked which is unusual because through traffic usually uses Brightside Lane. But that day Brightside Lane was a river.

    So sad that the bloke who drove the JCB and rescued those people is no longer alive.
    He was only about 43 years old at the time.
    Committed suicide over a silly misunderstanding with some family members.

    I remember this day like it was yesterday. I didn't have College that day so I was home luckily, my bro had gone to school and my mom was at work. My bro got let out at 2 because school was flooding and mom finished work at 3. They both had to walk home, my brother looked like he'd been bloody swimming. I made him strip his clothes off on the doorstep and put everything he was wearing in the bin. not washing stuff that were soaked in mucky Don water and the converse I'd bought him for his birthday two weeks before were ruined, made him get straight in bath then my mom did the same when she got home.

      It did seem that in may 2007 that we had a positive AO, but when our AAM dropped we knew by that time we would get extensive moments of HLB. Our easterly QBO was partly responsible for our summer washout in 2007 along with negative zonal winds across the troposphere aligning with the weak sea ice, the flip from el niño to la niña like we had in 1998 and 1988 meant that our chances of a good summer were screwed and we had very low solar activity at the time as well.

    i was other said couldn’t find way to home finally started swimming to cross the water it was trouble cold and sharp
    after very hard swimming
    i nearly crossed only few meters was lifted
    from my starting said of swimming was there a very stupid cop i have ever seen
    called me to return back which he was there from beginning
    selfishly he took out he’s gun and targeted me
    he shouted if don’t get back to him he will shots me i refused first so we was shouting at each other then the camera man was there he called me please come back here he will shot you i advice you to do what he wants
    all that happened within i’m still in that trouble water with shaking all my body
    the cap had he’s last words with very rude tongue
    he will definitely gonna shots me
    unfortunately decided to go back all the way rather than be shot .
    he could play all that stupid with me because i was migrant
    and there was journalists even they haven’t made a little news about it.
    all that pain will be in my memory forever
    some time after that i left uk
    went back to my home land.
