00:00Storm Chandra arrived in Devon overnight, dumping an unprecedented amount of rainfall
00:06on the county in a very short time.
00:09There was widespread travel disruption, multiple flood warnings and even a severe danger to
00:13life flood warning issued here on the River Otter at Ottery St Mary in East Devon where
00:17according to the Environment Agency the Otter reached its highest ever recorded level.
00:24Roads were badly affected too as rain falling on already saturated ground had nowhere to
00:27run off and the morning commute for many became impossible and with such a biblical deluge
00:34it seems that praying for dry weather might just be the answer.
