The picture of St. James’ Car Park? It’s actually Walkergate metro bridge.

If you enjoyed this weather, thank an SUV driver…

3. Lyndsey Beckwith

@born_digital picture is actually my own, check my twitter account @Lyndsooo for verification. Please amend photograph credit accordingly

4. Sunny Hundal

Have made changes, thanks

http://farsondigitalwatercams.com/gallery/North-Tyne/Haughton-Castle/ and http://farsondigitalwatercams.com/gallery/South-Tyne/Haydon-Bridge/ have some great river images (and link through to live cams for each, though one seems like it may have lost power due to the flooding)

Local weather service confirms more than 1″ of rain in an hour. I believe the annual rainfall for this part of the world is something like 24″. June, of course, is a relatively dry month.

I’ve just realised I’m not a Sky Sports presenter so I should be able to say this without getting into too much trouble, but it looks like a bleeding toon army swept through Geordie land like.
