The heavy rain and strong winds are taking their toll on Southampton Common, with water running across footpaths and puddles everywhere. The poor trees have had a bit of a battering with trees down as well as numerous large branches, it must be keeping someone with a chainsaw very busy!
At this point the water was running quite fast across the path.
It was pouring with rain at this point!
The family of swans on the lake are still looking good, with the cygnets almost completely white.
Cygnet in the rain, with lots of big droplets pooling on it's back.
A tree had fallen across the car park, luckily there was no car underneath it!
One benefit of going out in the rain is that there were very few people out and about on the common apart from the dog walkers who are obviously a hardy bunch.
