Flood Watch 2009-2010

...and hopefully just watching and nothing more....

The Severn has flooded at Shrewsbury and I know the barriers may be raised at Bewdley, just in case.

Of course, that in itself is not a problem.

I've just noticed that since last night, the confluence of the Teme and the Clun at Leintwardine, Herfs. has also flooded, blocking the A4113 Ludlow-Knighton and the A4110 Hereford-Knighton roads.

Now, all that water now heads down the Teme.

No need to panic or worry yet. Just to watch and keep briefed.

If the water ruins the carpet in the Hick Pavilion we really have a problem

The water is over South Quay.

Just popped down the ground at 10.00 am. Not under water yet, but only a matter of time maybe later on today . The River is very high and very fast flowing. All preparations have been made with all things that can be moved on high.

Depends on how high the Teme becomes.

Flooding tonight in Ironbridge- where the Wharfage is shut and barriers up; Bridgnorth where the Bylet Island is already under water; and Bewdley, where the barriers are up and the B4190 Town Bridge is shut. Crying or Very sad

Some water on the Kings School playing field - just where they used to have the drainage ditch funnily enough

Some floods

Was At NR today. Not too bad at moment, water coming from the usual place of behind the marquee area, its reached the square at the moment but not on the Cathedral side yet.

Some good news is that the B4190 bridge in the middle of Bewdley has re-opened tonight, as the waters have receded from Beales Corner on the eastern bank.

So no new water entering from the Severn then.
