Bewdley Flood group

Water doesn't flow uphill, but most rain falls in the mountains, its always going to flow through Bewdley, only the depth differs.

Reservoir dam failure in Poland this morning.

This is the top reservoir in a chain so may be even bigger implications.

Shrewsbury has seen its entire September average rainfall in a few hours today.

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

Next 10 days rainfall according to the European model.

If it comes off Cornwall & south Wales will sink!

@MrPeaNut_810 @raphaelmiguel I've had two breakdowns, dug out old passwords books from years past 😆

It won’t be the wettest you deal with in the next century!

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

Rainfall radar looks more like a July thundery continental plume event than a winter low.

@DaveThroup Will this winter never end 🤔

In Eardisland with @TammyGooding @MerryAlbright talking about the sad plight of Herefordshire rivers.

One of several things I’ll be talking out when I become guest editor on next Monday’s @bbchw Breakfast Show

Buckle up!

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

The warmest January day on record in the UK.

Beating the previous record by almost a full degree. And it might go higher.

Ridiculous stuff, but it’s happening around the world as warming accelerates.

Big trouble ahead!

For anyone unconvinced that rural land use makes a difference to runoff and pollution issues, heres the confluence of the Dulas Brook and River Dore at Pontrilas after 5mm of rain last night.

[Bewdley Flood group @group_flood]

It's that windy I have waves in my loo !

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

Storm Isha looking like the real deal on latest model runs.

Unusual to see such a widespread severe wind field.

Only consolation is peak winds will be late into Sunday night/Monday morning.

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

The introduction to this independent @CIWEM led review of the water environment nails it.

14 years into a Government allegedly committed to be the first to leave the environment in a better place than it found it, it’s excoriating.

[Dave Throup @DaveThroup]

Talk a lot about the risks of driving through floodwater.

Applies to cycling too!
