SALISBURY AFTER STORM CHANDRA
January 2026 saw three named storms and extensive flooding in parts of southern England. At the junction of five rivers, Salisbury was significantly affected. This stitched panorama taken from my drone shows flooded water meadows along the Rivers Avon and Nadder. The cathedral spire provides a visual focal point and instantly-recognisable sense of place.
