Storm warnings are all too common nowadays, but bad weather has caused problems across East Lancashire for many years.

Lancashire Telegraph: Blackburn Road, Haslingden, 1998

This photo shows drivers easing their way through a seriously flooded stretch of Blackburn Road in Haslingden following torrential rain in October 1998.

The road, close to Winfield’s, would become impassable for a while with several cars having to be abandoned.
