We may be forgiven for thinking ok what drought, but we are still in drought conditions despite all this rain. Over the next 24 hours they say we will get a months worth of rain, and I do not doubt this with the amount of rain falling here in Ellesmere. The rivers are on flood alert as well, so if your on a river stay safe.

Apart from the hazards that the rain brings the wind is also bringing another hazard and that is falling trees. Just seen a photo on Facebook from Working Boat Alton, where a tree came down behind them, so I just hope that if your moored up under trees you are safe. There has also been a land slide on the Shroppy at Woodeaves Cutting, which will be looked at tomorrow by the engineers. It is all happening out there.
