A short walk before dawn this morning, with the bright snow on either side to guide my path, and everywhere the roar of the Etherow coming down the steps by the dam.
Mercifully, as far as I can tell, it seems the rain has been too long-term to flood Hebden Bridge. But other places are flooded or close.
Please pray for people whose homes or businesses have flooded,
those who fear flooding,
those who are struggling to know what to do for the best
as the floods come in a time of social distancing.
