Residents of Brighton 1, Mother Nature 0

A spot of inclement weather is usually enough to bring the entire infrastructure of the United Kingdom to a grinding halt.

So when thunderstorms, hailstones and severe rainfall lashed down on the south coast this morning, the staff at i100 towers were expecting the good people of Brighton to batten down the hatches and hibernate till lunchtime...

However, Brighton plays by its own rules and responded in its own way...

With highly impractical travel advice

With references to mythical gods

With streaking

And with hashtags

Take that, Mother Nature...

Apart from, you know, all the major traffic jams, rail delays and flash flooding across Sussex being reported elsewhere.
