It was surprising to see the water level so low, which can be nothing to do with lack of rain - the year that just finished was the 2nd wettest on record, and still the rain goes on.
No, there must be another reason: now let me see... haven't they just finished the water pipeline that takes water to Miningsby Reservoir? See TF3596 : They're pinching our water! and TF3596 : Covenham to Boston water pipeline: January 2013.
