Peters Brook, Somerville, facing downstream towards Cliff St. bridge
Since we have an interest in the Peters Brook in Somerville for several projects, I took a trip out today after the rain had stopped to see what the Peters Brook looked like. By the time this photo was taken, the peak stage had already passed and the waters were receding. The Peters Brook over-topped its banks and was carry quite a bit of sediment. Most of this photograph is showing land that is now covered by the high flows of the stream.
Here's what this spot looks like in normal flows from the top of the bridge facing upstream (at Cliff Street, Somerville):

The Peters Brook Greenway is a great way to spend some quality time with this stream!
