Today’s nostalgia section takes a look back at the many times British weather has tried to ruin how we go about our lives.

As the rain continues to batter down around Cumbria this week, the public have been warned that a “tropical rainstorm” is away to rear its ugly head.

The country is set to be hit by 60mph winds as Hurricane Sam makes its way into the Atlantic Ocean.

People were urged at the start of the week to avoid low-lying footpaths and bridges near Derwentwater after a flood warning was issued for Keswick Campsite.

The Environment Agency reported that water levels in the area rose slowly throughout Sunday, with the area most at risk of flooding being the low-lying land bordering the shores of Derwentwater and the frontage of the Keswick Camping and Caravan Club Site.

"Avoid using low-lying footpaths and any bridges near local watercourses, and do not attempt to walk or drive through flood water," the Agency warned.

It is also nearly six years since Cumbria succumbed to Storm Desmond, where a month’s worth of rainfall dropped in 24 hours and more than 5,000 homes were left underwater. Millions of pounds had been spent on improved defences after the floods of 2005 that left over 1,800 properties in the city flooded, they thought it wouldn't happen again in their lifetimes. But it did.

Five years after the floods, Cumbria Constabulary Chief Constable Michelle Skeer recalled: “It is one of those massive events that we used to say happened once in 100 years, but we saw it in 2005, 2009 and 2015 and then some mini events in between.”

As we can see from the images gathered, the bad weather struggles to remove the smiles from the faces of Cumbrians. Events held in the county, like the Flimby Kid’s Carnival and the Castle Rock Festival in Workington’s Curwen Park have both experienced rainfall over the years. The precipitation only adds to the fun however, as audiences continued to enjoy their time at the functions.

If you see yourself in any of the images, let us know.
