Exeter Floods - River Exe at Trews Weir Flood Relief Channel Spillway 

After the wettest summer in 100 years and with two months' rain falling in the last six days, on 25 November 2012 the River Exe is in full spate as it flows over the Trews Weir Flood Relief Channel spillway, close to Exeter city centre. The cocoa-coloured water carries tons of sediment and debris on its route through the city, into the Exe estuary and beyond to the coastal waters of the English Channel.
