Daily Mail
"1,330mm of rain fell in the last year - 7mm less than in 2000 - Four of five wettest years in Britain have been in last 12 years - 2012 was the wettest year ever for England but not other home nations - Number of days of torrential rain also up over last 50 years - Britain can expect more floods, Met Office chief scientist tells MailOnline.....
ED:In the comments.....
''2012 was the second wettest year in British history, the Met Office has revealed today.'' NO! It was ''since records began'' in 1910. That's just over one century ago. That is not the full history of Britain. There has probably been much more rain over the billions of years of Earth's and Britain's history. The Friends of the the Earth and other activists are again confusing correlation with causation. - Emerald_isle , Norfolk, 03/1/2013 17:29
..............I remember in 2003 being told as 2003 was one of the driest years on record, that global warming meant that we would be getting more drier and hotter summers. Fast forward 9 years that have failed to be hot and dry and we are now told that global warming actually means more wet weather and more flooding. - Geyza , Manchester, United Kingdom, 03/1/2013 16:53
