  2. Yes, nice shot Rob. Did the river get any higher? Any shots of the surrounding area.

    1. Yes, it had been a few feet higher the week prior to this. It looked pretty much the same as when it flooded last year, but the light was better last year. See here

  3. Hi Rob, is the weir now under water? I see the level has passed that in 2007. What about the surrounding houses? I'm in the Netherlands watching the news.

    1. Could be. I drove over new Wallingford Bridge and the meadow is all under water. Just popping out with a camera so may post later.

    2. It is a couple of feet up now, compared to this. About the same height as it was first week of January - between 2007 and 2013 levels. No access to weir. Due to rise some more over the next few days.
