Torrential rain this morning brought chaos to Bournemouth town centre and pockets of inconvenience all across the conurbation. Here we see flash flooding on Talbot Road Roundabout, which is set on such a slope that only one quarter is really affected. Already as we look at it here, the water has begun to recede and it would be clear by teatime when I next came through.
