The venial part of my brain says “you’ve never arrived home so late in such heavy rain“.
The rational part of my brain says “this is not normal, this is a climate emergency.”
Honestly, it’s hard to convey the amount of water I’m seeing in the wrong place.
Arrive home in Brighton after a late night in London. Several steps from the station, and my shoes are already sodden. Half way home, encounter an entirely flooded footpath.
