@PJennings88 @RiverChess Hi Paul, when I was out flow monitoring last week on the river by the Moor, I think I saw a water vole. Have they been seen there before?

[Holly Smith @hollynws]

@PJennings88 @RiverChess If this hasn't already been reported to the council, how do we go about doing that?

[Holly Smith @hollynws]

@PJennings88 @RiverChess Remember to put it on the mudspotter app!

[Holly Smith @hollynws]

@PJennings88 @RiverChess There is a similar manhole that overspills during rainfall on Bois Lane, just above the railway bridge. Water runs down the road all the way to junction with Cresswell Road.

@PJennings88 @RiverChess @ChilternsAONB @Chilternstreams @ChilternSociety why is it coming out of that drain... seems very odd!

Today: Record temperatures.

Tomorrow: Thunderstorms and warnings of flash flooding.

It's not "just the summer".

It's the climate crisis.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

The serious flash floods last year show our capital is feeling the impact of the climate crisis. While the likelihood of flooding remains low for most properties, we’re distributing advice to at-risk buildings on how to prepare for and deal with a flood.

The benefits of trees in urban spaces is clear! Great work 👍

[Mark Mulligan @markmulligan]

#Trees @cityoflondon are critical in reducing the impact of #ukheatwave, see our monitoring at #CheapsideBA. At the peak of the heatwave #Heat in the shade of the trees (black) is 3.3 deg. cooler than in the open (red), some hot days more than 8 deg. cooler! #ClimateResilience

[LDNMayor Environment @LDN_environment]

We're working with @ThamesWater & @educationgovuk to make 100 London schools more climate resilient. Including: reducing surface water flood risk, helping schools with climate adaptation plans and teaching children the importance of climate adaptation. https://t.co/SEYPUZ0WBT
