Tony Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 This information coming in is reliable. Evacuations are taking place. Once again.. please take care and avoid the area. That includes anyone contemplating sightseeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Maiden Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 it would seem so...and would make sense considering how many people would be checking this forum! (like me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virus Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'm not familiar with the rivers that are around the reservoir, if it were to burst would it surge into the Don & Rother causing more chaos in Sheffield and in Rotherham centre? I hope to god it doesn't break... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdyamos Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Are there any clear pointers as to which areas of the city would be cut off (electricity speaking), or is it something they cannot predict? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
