Oxford today

Filed under: Oxford, Thames, floods — Howard @ 6:25 pm

Flood water is reaching Oxford today (Sunday), and while the waters are beginning to rise it might be Monday night/Tuesday morning before the worst arrives and levels can start to fall again.

Here are some views of the Thames near Folly Bridge, Grandpont, and Oxford Castle as the waters begin to rise.

Thames/Isis

Looking from Folly Bridge, west – note the long boat precariously moored just upstream.
