November started with ten days of chilly but reasonably sunny weather, but it will long be remembered for the floods during its fourth week. It may be hard to recall that until 19 November it was generally rather dry. Then the heavens opened as slow moving and intense low pressure systems arrived and brought prolonged bouts of heavy rain, especially between 20 and 27 November. Falling on already saturated ground this provoked repeated flooding.
