Dreadful stuff and becoming ever more common in the Med - I hope all forumites there are safe.
A man died two people are missing in flash floods which hit the north coast of Crete, Greece’s biggest island. https://www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2022/10/16/photos-deadly-flash-flooding-batters-greek-island-of-crete

It's certainly unpredictable. We've had no rain here yet this Autumn and temperatures have remained high. I'm sitting on the deck sunning myself after a refreshing swim - sea temp 19C. This is the forecast for next week

Hardly had any media coverage here in Spain. Becoming quite a common event on the Mediterranean Spanishcoast
