Floods Going Down Now

They've finally opened the road across the moor again.









Because the water stayed for so long this time, most of the vegetation has rotted & it really really stinks.

 

It will soon dry out again in this weather Ziggy, then flood again in a storm next week then freeze over the week after...

 

Farmers won't be very happy, thats a lot of grazing gone. They are normally cutting haylage from it about now, then they put the Moo Moos on it when its dry enough.

 

i bet they are not, cant imagine what it must feel like to get up in the morning and see your entire crop submerged kinda puts that little slug that keeps nibbling my lettice into perspective

 

If it's grass Ziggy then it won't take long to recover, but not for haymaking though.

 

Is the Hosepipe ban still in place?

 

Not in Somerset Gcc,

Not just the grazing thats gone, on the other side of the moor half a field of Wheat is rotten.
