Flash flood at Pole Bank



A couple of weeks ago I was on my way back from Stockport on the bus. As we approached Pole Bank the bus slowed down. A thunderstorm had caused flash flooding where a small stream is carried under the road by a culvert which appeared to have blocked temporarily.

I was on the front seat and still had my camera round my neck (hidden under my overcoat) and I was able to get a couple of quick shots of the scene as we went through.

The other photograph can be seen on Hyde Daily Photo.

  2. As least you could get through the street. Nothing like the Eastern US is experiencing right now. Poor folks!
