Bewdley, UK. 19th January, 2021. With extremely heavy rainfall from Storm Christoph forecast, Bewdley is preparing for yet more flooding. The Environment Agency has been quick to act, flood management teams seen here busily erecting flood defences alongside the River Severn. It's been only three weeks since flood barriers were taken down after the festive flood risk. Sadly, it's also less than twelve months since barriers in Bewdley were breached after the effects of Storm Dennis, causing devastation to many residents and businesses in the town.
