After thirty-five consecutive days of rain in County Fermanagh throughout November 2009, the water levels on Lough Erne rose to 158ft above sea level (Ballyshannon). This was the highest since records began in 1956. The road onto Inishmore Island is closed here as a through route to Derrylin, owing to flooding along the road. The sign fails to mention that the diversion is through Enniskillen town - 20 miles as opposed to the normal 10. Back to: Image Forward to: Image
