Accrington Web - Today in pictures

It wet and wild up Pendle Hill today, with wind, rain, fog & hail.
1. A distant view of where we are heading.
2. The chopping of the surrounding woodlands has begun.
3. Ogden Reservoir.
4. A couple of uprooted trees.
5. Two very naughty dogs.
6. The stream that runs into the reservoir.
7. The clouds are getting low again.
8. Here comes the fog.
9. At least someones getting some sunshine.
10. Looking down towards where we were a few hours ago.

Amazing views! Wish I could be there.

Today in Pictures, a very wet, muddy, slutchy, sloppy, hailstoning experience.

1. Dunkenhalgh land.
2. Heading down to the river, it doesn't look very clever weather wise.
3. A swollen River Hyndburn, the roar is very loud.
4. The water is taking with it a lot of soil.
5. I find the breast stroke is best.
6. Right, where is the best place to put my picnic basket.
7. Heading back up the hill,......slowly.
8. The hill in the distance is "Ossy" moors, home of the turbines.
9. In the Autumn this stump was covered in fungi.
10. Time for home.
