Somebody already mentioned it in this thread. The Lufthansa A321 runway overrun in Poland comes to mind considering the circumstances. Approach in rain and relatively strong and gusty winds, touched down pretty late and pretty fast.
Does anybody have the accident report on this, since I do not remember the details.
The only thing I remember is that either thrust-reversers or breaks or both could not be used for a critical perioed of time since with flap setting three (which was used for landing) a necessary precondition for their usage was not fullfilled (not enough weight on the main landing gear if I am not mistaken).

Anyway, would be grateful if somebody could find the report.
