I heard on NPR this afternoon that northern England's recent rains were the worst in not 100 years or even 500 years, but in 1,000 years, and the latest estimate is $2 million in damages, which will probably be even higher once it's all settled. The story only mentioned northern England, but from the looks of Alex's pictures the situation seems similar in southern Scotland. (I didn't intend that alliteration.)
