Despite the rain, elsewhere in Dorset it was chaos, I hear there were many car accidents , one closed the Upton bypass and the other the Puddletown bypass with 40 plus vehicles.
When I called the Coastguard Operations room in Weymouth this morning, they were tasking many Coastguard units after being asked for help by South Western Ambulance (SWAST).
With permission from the Watch Manager at Portland, I decided to deploy the Swanage Mobile with an Ambulance responder in the vehicle to provide the town with Ambulance cover whilst front line vehicles attended the incidents above.
Yet again it shows how the emergency services come together to assist the public if required.
