The litany of flash floods caused by extraordinarily heavy rainfall in 2014 grew even longer Monday after record-shattering rainfall struck one of southern France's largest cities.

Montpellier, a city of 264,000 along France's Mediterranean coast, was hit with 252 millimeters (9.92 inches) of rain in just 3 hours, between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. local time (9 a.m. and noon EDT in the U.S.). The exceptionally heavy rain flooded streets and quickly sent the river Lez out of its banks in the city center.

As of 8 p.m. local time, the city had tallied 295.6 millimeters (11.63 inches) of rain for the day, amounting to 47 percent of the city's average annual rainfall of 24.77 inches.


meanwhile





The UK is on course to have its driest September since records began, according to provisional figures released on Tuesday by the Met Office.

The country received just 19.4mm of rain up to 28 September, about a fifth of the normal level.

It has also been one of the warmest Septembers in the past century.

But forecasters say the UK is set for a return to more normal conditions in early October - with cooler, wetter, and windier weather expected.

The Met Office holds rainfall records going back to 1910. Before this year, the driest September was in 1959, when 23.8 mm of rain fell.

It was only 2.5C when I got up this morning and 0.0C on the grass so it felt autumnal. Tomoz will be more so with all the rain that is coming.
