There has been a serious flood in the tiny seaside village of
Boscastle in cornwall a lot of holidaymakers and residents
have had to be rescued by helicopters.
Cars and mobliehomes were washed in to the river by a raging
flood and caused a lot of damage to homes and buisness alike.

According to the weather people there was 1 months rainfall
in 1 hour, but they said it was not global warming to blame
but just good old British weather at its worse???
