News today is that after another storm last night Corfu is in the grips of flooding. Properties in Corfu Town have been damaged, landslides reported, one dead and many people needing to be rescued.
I'm sure this is correct. I understand from colleagues who live further south that the storm was horrendous there, and areas to the south west of the island are without power etc today.
Up here in the north we did have quite a downpour overnight, it was certainly remnicent of some of our more inclement autumn nights, but this morning we have sunshine and blue skies, and everything seems fine.
We've always said that weather on the island can be very localised, with rain in one village and brilliant sunshine on the next. I am slightly bemused though that such mayhem was going on just a few miles down the road from us whilst I, if not quite slept through the whole thing, didn't find the need to actually have to get out of bed last night!
I sincerely hope all those caught up in last night's difficulties are safe, sound and haven't suffered any damage to property.
