When will it stop raining?


It seems to have been raining for weeks. It almost seems incrdible that last year we had hospipe bans, we awoke this morning to hear Shefiield, Leeds & Hull has been flooded and the Ulley Resevoir is in danger of collapse. The reservoir near Rotherham is 46 feet (14 meters) deep and covers an area of 35 acres (14 hectares). It was built in 1874 and supplied drinking water to Rotherham for a century. By the 1980s it was no longer needed and is now a park popular country park.
The Dam is in the area we lived before we moved to South Wales.
