Hey! Am I the only one noticed the storm last night? I passed through CVO centre this morning at 8 and it was awash. Must have been some flooding I think.

Funny, when I went out this morning it was chilly, but clear and dry.

Huge storm last night, kept us and the dogs awake!
Seemed to be a lot of mopping up going on in ruas dos pescadores and barranco this morning.
Thankfully it is much quieter now and is a nice clear, dry evening.

Hi all - was it the storm that has caused the weather cam to go squiffy and focus on the road too!

Ah but it is a very nice bit of road with a particularly attractive long shadow.

Anybody know just how much rain fell? I've had a call in England saying that there could be flooding at my place in Ferragudo.

We reckon at least 8 inches fell on Sunday night - going by how much the level of our pool and pond increased!
Quite a few shops in rua do barranco and rua dos pescadores were flooded including caixa geral.
I did hear Ferragudo had some problems so it might be worth getting it checked out.
