Default Water Levels???

With the news reporting drought conditions in the east and south of England has anyone got any recent photos of water levels on any of the major reservoirs around the country?
Its hard to believe because its seems to have p****ed down all winter here in Wales!!

This from Bristol water, dated Feb 15:

The reservoirs have risen by 1% from last week and now stand at an average of 78% full. That is 1% higher than at this time last year.

Over the week, Chew Lake stayed the same at 73% full (71% this time last year); Blagdon Lake is 76% full (84% this time last year) whilst Cheddar Reservoir is 96% full (81% this time last year).

The Barrow Reservoirs are 73% full (89% this time last year)

Haribo,

The sailing club has a live shorecam on Rutland.

Rutland Sailing Club - Shore Cam

It's not the clearest, but, it looks pretty to low to me.

Local farmer calls for national water grid on the 6 o'clock news. If the planet is going through a warm spell what is going on behind the forward planners locked doors right now. If anything I add, I would not be surprised. Bob

There has been enough rain/water going down the Welsh Dee and the Severn to fill all the midland reservoirs twice over this winter!!
