20100713_IMG_4176.jpg Thirlmere reservoir in the Lake District UK, with a hosepipe ban in affect in the North West. United Utilities applied for the drought order, after the driest start to the year since 1929, with less than 50% of normal rainfall. The drought comes hot on the heals of the worst floods that Cumbria has ever seen, when in November 2009, United Utilities had to open the emergency valves to let water out, as the dam was in danger of collapsing when the water reached unprecendented high levels. Climate modelling shows that as the atmosphere warms we are more likely to move to a cycle of flood followed by drought.

IMG_2019_p.jpg Kinglake was one of the worst affected communities of the catastrophic 2009 Australian Bush Fires in the state of Victoria. 173 people were killed and many more left injured and traumatised, with 7000 left homeless. The fires were as a result of a prolonged drought and extreme high temperatures, conditions that are being exaserbated by climate change. One year on, the survivors are still living in emergency housing constructed on the edge of the town.

366W5881_evacuate.jpg In January 2005 a severe storm hit Cumbria with over 100 mph winds that created havoc on the roads and toppled over 1million trees. The event lead to severe flooding in many parts of cumbria especially in Carlisle. As global warming takes affect we can expect more of these severe weather events

IMG_7265_swamped.jpg On Thursday 19th November 2009 over 31cm of rain fell in 24 hours on the Cumbrian mountains. The single largest rainfall total in the British Isles since records began. It caused unprecedented flooding, with Cockermouth being particularly badly hit after both the Cocker and Derwent burst their banks. The main street was 5 feet underwater and £millions worth of damage was caused.  This shot shows aflooded car on Cockermouth Main Street, UK.
