UNITED KINGDOM FLOODED COULD LAST MONTHS

JEWISH KING JESUS IS COMING AT THE RAPTURE FOR US IN THE CLOUDS-DON'T MISS IT FOR THE WORLD.THE BIBLE TAKEN LITERALLY- WHEN THE PLAIN SENSE MAKES GOOD SENSE-SEEK NO OTHER SENSE-LEST YOU END UP IN NONSENSE.

STORMS HURRICANES-TORNADOES

LUKE 21:25-26
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;(MASS CONFUSION) the sea and the waves roaring;(FIERCE WINDS)
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear,(TORNADOES,HURRICANES,STORMS) and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth:(DESTRUCTION) for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.(FROM QUAKES,NUKES ETC)

THE FIRST JUDGEMENT OF THE EARTH STARTED WITH WATER-IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THE LAST GENERATION WILL BE HAVING FLOODING
GENESIS 7:6-12
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
GOD PROMISED BY A RAINBOW-THE EARTH WOULD NEVER BE DESTROYED TOTALLY WITH A FLOOD AGAIN.BUT FLOODIING IS A SIGN OF JUDGEMENT.

UK Floods Could Last Months, Scientist Warns

FEB 11,14-yahoonews
Scientists have told Sky News that groundwater levels are now so high that parts of Britain face a serious risk of flooding for weeks or even months to come.Andy McKenzie, a groundwater scientist at the British Geological Survey, told Sky News that even if the rain stopped today, so much water is soaking through the soil that levels are likely to keep rising for another two months.The risk of flooding could remain high until May, he said.Figures exclusively revealed to Sky News show that boreholes used to measure the height of the water table are overflowing in many areas, with the highest levels ever recorded.According to the data from the British Geological Survey nine of the 14 boreholes in southern England are now showing "exceptionally high levels".At Chilgrove House in Sussex the groundwater level at the end of January beat records going back 179 years.And at a borehole at The Well House Inn in Surrey the extraordinary rainfall has pushed up the water table by 20 metres in the last two weeks.The British Geological Survey estimates 1.6 million properties in England and Wales are at risk of groundwater flooding.They tend to be in low-lying areas where water is pushed up through rocks. They can be in normally dry areas, far from rivers and streams.The Environment Agency (EA) has already issued groundwater flood alerts  for parts of south London, Kent, Surrey, Berkshire, Wiltshire, Hampshire and Dorset.The EA warns that cellars are likely to flood, and if groundwater seeps into sewers, there could be pollution. Roads could also be closed by rising water levels.In the winter of 2000-01 groundwater flooding of the Patcham area of Brighton cost £800,000 and cut off the London to Brighton railway line.

Water flowing underground is also likely to mean the Somerset Levels will remain flooded well into the Spring.Sky News descended through a pothole in the Mendip Hills to access a network of caves that stretches for several miles.Huge volumes of water are cascading through the tunnels, heading for the low-lying areas.Andy Sparrow of Caveclimb has been exploring the system for several decades. He said he has never seen it so wet for so long.With more storms forecast this week, and no sign the jet stream is moving north to its normal position, large areas of Britain are at risk of further flooding.

1,650 troops put on flood standby

More than 1,500 members of Britain's armed forces have been put on standby to help communities wrecked by flooding, as David Cameron told the hundreds of home owners forced to flee their homes: "We're in for a long haul."The Prime Minister is expected to hold a press conference in London tonight after returning from his overnight tour of England's south west, where homes have been wrecked and the train route connecting Cornwall with the rest of the country has collapsed.More than 1,000 people have been forced to leave their homes in the south west and Thames Valley, with many more braced to evacuate in the coming days as weeks of heavy rainfall shows no signs of abating.Speaking on his trip to beleaguered South West communities, Mr Cameron said: "We have to recognise it's going to take time before we get things back to normal."We're in for a long haul, but the Government will do everything we can to coordinate the nation's resources."If money needs to be spent, it will be spent; if resources are required, we will provide them; if the military can help, they will be there. We must do everything, but it's going to take time to put these things right."Hundreds of military personnel have been drafted in to help in the worst-affected areas, as politicians and agencies get embroiled in a war of words prompted by residents' anger at a perceived lack of action.
Around 400 weather warnings remain in place across England, with forecasters predicting further heavy rainfall on already-saturated ground.In some cases, desperate home-owners reported having their vacant homes looted, while others said sandbags intended for the worst-hit areas were "hijacked".Last night more than 70 people were evacuated from their homes in the Thames Valley - tipping the number over the 1,000 mark since the end of January.And Communities Secretary Eric Pickles told MPs there was a high risk that the River Severn and River Wye would also break their banks, further stretching resources.The Met Office's Sarah Davies told a briefing that strong winds forecast for the middle of the week could add to the problems facing the country - with snow reported today in pockets of the Midlands.Some 20-40mm (0.75-1.5 inches) of rain is expected by Friday night across many southern and western areas.But some regions, including the already flood-hit south west of England, South Wales, western Scotland and Northern Ireland could have up to 70mm (2.75 inches).A storm due to hit tomorrow could fell trees and cause transport and power disruption, Ms Davies warned, with winds in the South West potentially reaching 80mph.Defence Secretary Philip Hammond was tackled by residents in the Berkshire community of Wraysbury, who said they were "seriously in need" of military intervention.Mr Hammond told the BBC that the "Government has got a grip on this" but authorities cannot "prevent the course of nature".Mr Hammond, whose constituency of Runnymede and Weybridge has been affected by the flooding, said now was not the time to discuss how well the Environment Agency has dealt with the situation.He told BBC Breakfast: "Of course the Environment Agency - obviously under enormous pressure - is doing everything it can to manage this situation."Of course there will be longer-term questions about policy on the way flooding defences are managed, on, for example, the policy of river dredging, and the time to discuss them is when the waters have gone down, when we've gone back to normal."The Ministry of Defence said hundreds of military personnel were involved in attempts to help beleaguered communities.A spokesman said Mr Hammond offered the services of military personnel to assist flood relief efforts in Wraysbury.Currently, 100 members of Z Company The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers are now arriving in the area, while m arines from 40 Commando continue to provide assistance to Somerset County Council by carrying out a variety of manual labour tasks such as filling and moving sandbags and moving residents' possessions to safety.Approximately 30 personnel are at Chesil Beach in Dorset and are supporting the Environment Agency by repairing the flood defences using military bulldozers and excavators.A military spokesman said: "A number of military planners are working with relevant agencies at a range of locations to scope what further support the military can offer.
"More than 1,650 personnel at a variety of locations across the south of the UK have been placed at high readiness and stand ready to receive taskings as required."Their number has been boosted by an army of volunteers who have pitched in to help with the operations in the Thames Valley.Meanwhile, commuters faced another day of delays on the rail networks.There is major disruption to CrossCountry services between Oxford and Didcot Parkway, Bridgwater and Taunton, and Taunton and Plymouth/Penzance, while First Great Western said it would only be able to run four trains an hour between Reading and London Paddington because of flooding near Maidenhead.South West Trains, Southeastern and Southern are also operating heavily-curtailed services.Communities Secretary Eric Pickles said special efforts were being made to protect vital infrastructure from the floods to minimise disruption.But officials have predicted hundreds more homes will be flooded over the coming days and restoring the country's battered rail network could take months.Efforts to deal with the flooding have been overshadowed by a bitter clash between ministers and the Environment Agency, after Mr Pickles issued a barbed apology for relying on its advice.Environment Secretary Owen Paterson - who was leading the response until being forced to undergo an eye operation - is said to have complained to Downing Street over his Tory colleague's intervention.The Prime Minister, on a visit to Chesil Beach yesterday, praised the work of the Environment Agency but gave only limited support to its under-fire chairman Lord Smith, saying "this isn't the time for a change in personnel, this is the time for getting on, everyone has to get on with the job they are doing".Mr Cameron said he would hold a press conference at Downing Street to discuss the response to the floods.The PM's spokesman was asked at a regular Westminster media briefing whether Mr Cameron would consider diverting money from the UK's £11 billion foreign aid budget to help people affected by floods.The spokesman responded: "As the Prime Minister was saying yesterday, the resources are there. That is the central point."Labour leader Ed Miliband said flood defences should be made a higher priority for Government, even if it costs more money.Asked during a visit to Wraysbury whether he would spend more on defences, Mr Miliband told the BBC: "Yes. We can't attribute any one event to climate change, but we know climate change is going to mean we have more events like this - more extreme weather events, more flooding, more storms."It's clear that flood defence needs to be more of a priority for Government."The situation has become so severe in Surrey that police and crime commissioner Kevin Hurley has made the force's pot of up to £10 million in reserve available to help flooding victims.
