and ne'er a drop to drink

The water was off this morning which was ironic given the weather the last 3 days. I couldn't wash up..sob..crocodile tears. Unfortunately it came back on later.
The weather has been  very Welsh. Generally this year precipitation has been high. The talk , with some satisfaction is that this winter the rivers in the Atlas have never run dry. There have been several periods like now of steay indeed stair-rod rain for 3 or 4 days leading to bridges being washed away. There has been fresh snow on the Atlas this weekend. Yesterday the dam was so full they had to release some water to prevent a risk of failure.
We went out to the main bridge to take some photos.The causeway was acting as a dam itself with water like a wide lake upstream and pouring through the sluice.
