The sudden snowfall after Storm Arwen didn't last long; higher temperatures soon melted the light covering we had. A couple of days later, the River Aire at Hirst Weir was a tumbling mass of waves crashing down over the rocks. Exhilarating to see and great too to enjoy a crisp, dry day and some sunshine.
The river in spate is a grand sight indeed. I just hope that the farms higher up in the Pennines were not affected too badly.
