New Year's Day on the River Severn

May 2023 bring peace to you all. The Severn has reached the flood point when the gates along the path are locked. It rained heavily this morning, but tomorrow it should be dry and sunny. The flooding depends on what is happening upstream in Wales, and the homes and businesses here are starting to get nervous.

A beautiful image.............and nicely composed Amelia. The water level is really high and It's easy to see why people are worried about flooding (again).

Fingers crossed it doesn't happen!

A Happy New Year to you and yours.
