River Exe Flooding

Today saw the River Exe here in Exeter at exceptional high levels after a week of wet weather, I went down just after dawn to get a few shots...

This shot really brings the increase in height of water home



This is the ferry crossing, the cable is usually around shoulder height



The scene just after dawn, the water was still rising



The transit shed



At it's height the water completely covered the cobbled road







People carried on with their usual pursuits





Quite a few sightseers today




News reports and police warnings, may be more to come?



The old Mediaeval bridge has seen it all before


That's all for today
