River again

The flooding's been really bad over Christmas and New Year this holiday season. It's been so dangerous.

I hope the currently missing people who are suspected of entering water are found quickly, this seems to be a nationwide issue and the water is now receding just as fast as it rose.

Very sad news.
So many of these kind of deaths recently.
Or is it a case of the media only reporting these deaths, because of the interest surrounding the Nicola Bulley case?
