Rivers on the rise

We seem to have some milder weather on the way but this of course has triggered the snow melt. As a result the last 24 hours have seen the Warks Avon rise by over a metre and it appears it's a similar story on the Severn. Of course, this new influx of water will also play havoc with the temperatures so with cold, coloured water the order of day I think the rivers are probably best left alone for a week or so.
