Managed a short moors walk yesterday. It didn't rain all day. 
I have never seen so much water ! The streams were swollen, the rivers bursting their banks and there were new streams all over the hillsides. Good thing I have waterproof boots.
I called in at two of our local small resevoirs which were, of course, full to overflowing. The overflows were like torrents.
I had one of my daughters along and this shows a tiny stream near one of the reservoirs. Normally it would be a small trickle, about 15 to 20 cm across at the most.
DROUGHT?
