Windermere Dam has actually gone down only a further .5% since my last photo but at this tail end of the lake the signs of the continuing dry are showing.

Certainly not looking good. Let's hope there's some decent rain soon.
ReplyDeleteWaiting. Waiting.
DeleteIt's a worrying sight Joan Elizabeth, hopefully rain soon ✨
ReplyDeleteThey have implemented level 1 water restrictions to preserve the water supply.
DeleteYou need rain.
ReplyDeleteYep.
DeleteI lived through droughts like this in California. (In fact, this scene looks very much like California's dry hills.) It's alarming -- and depressing.
ReplyDeleteI looked it up. Severe drought has come on average every 18 years. There are other less severe droughts in between. It is always alarming during a drought and quickly forgotten once the rain comes.
DeleteLooks sad. And here it´s pouring down like crazy...
ReplyDeleteThe rain has to be falling somewhere.
DeleteIt sure is a dry continent at the moment with our part of the country on fire.
ReplyDeleteThat is the double whammy isn't it. Drought feeds fire.
