Quiet day on the Ock

Following the snow and recent heavy rain the river was place on flood watch this week.  Now the water and the flood alerts have now receded leaving the river surrounding area with a somewhat drab and dank, but thankfully without the risk of homes being flooded:

  1. We're shivering under a blanket of new snow here in the midwestern US; looking forward to spring!

  2. Hope the snow clears up soon.
    There are few signs of spring here - snowdrops coming up and birds starting to sing, but it is still cold (by UK standards)
