Yes, just experienced that one in Exeter and Dawlish. Took about 5 minutes to flood the roads coming out of Exeter and then got home and had a nice thunderstorm. Was very very heavy rain, don't expect to see it like that at Glasto, hope not anyway.

Weardest goddam weather I have ever seen.... seams to be falling everywhere except where we don't want it to fall.

Having said that, I expect this will go in all sorts of directions once it hits land.
