The River Ock looks browner than usual

That was changed to 7-9am on weekdays and a bit longer on Saturday, and now it has changed again to 8-10 am on weekdays.

I walked back by the Ock Valley Walk. The water level has gone down from a week ago, but the water looks browner than usual.

There must be a lot more sediment being carried down from the Vale of White Horse.
