Strangely I actually think there is an uck and ouse in the north or East Anglia as well.
Thankfully there is no current warning but the water table is pretty high going by the sodden state of my garden so I figure that despite our helpful chalky ground on the hills at somepoint if it continues to rain then surface water will start to run off. Crowborough is high so we are safe from standing floods but the surface runoff is what got us last time.
At least it is highlighting the good work etc our emergency services and the Forces do despite cut backs. The government is now partially reaping the results of its cutbacks in search and rescue now.
Some are starting to point out that it hasn't stopped raining since Brown became PM.

Just a little map to show you the Uck and the ouse which are the rivers likely to flood Lewes and Ukfield.
