Floods will peak later today, Worcester: Sunday, 16th February, 2020.

The stream under Tower Bridge is now as wide as the park.
The branches kingfishers sit on are submerged.
The river is just behind that low white wall behind Vicky.
Just as much water in the park behind David.
Don't think we'll be able to stand by the 
railings above the river again for some time.
The river level has risen over the left hand bank 
and is flooding the racecourse.
Spot Waterworks Road resident up to his knees.
Not good.
The Worcester Swancourse.
Usual walk across the bridge is flooded so we are 
taking the high ground to get around the park.
Swans appreciate Vicky's efforts.
No way through here.
Nor along here.
The Brook is getting wider and wider 'cos it has nowhere to go.
Crocuses carrying on regardless.
Swan Bridge is fast becoming an island.
View across to The Pump House from the flooded footbridge….
…..and looking back towards Swan Bridge from the same place.
