It's wet and we've had 3 discharges already this year:

07-Jan-2016 09:27 Hammersmith pumping station
Rower notification from Thames Water:Hammersmith Pumping Station (PS) Following the recent rainfall, Hammersmith PS has in the last hour discharged untreated storm sewage into the River Thames, due to lack of capacity in the existing sewer network. We are working hard to develop the Thames Tideway Tunnel to address the unacceptable volume and frequency of these discharges. The proposed tunnel would capture flows from the 34 most polluting 'combined sewer overflows' (CSOs) discharging to the river, including Hammersmith PS, and transfer the sewage to our works at Beckton in east London for treatment.

09-Jan-2016 22:07 Mogden sewage treatment works
Rower notification from Thames Water: Mogden Sewage Treatment Works (STW) Within the next hour, Mogden Sewage Treatment Works will be discharging heavily diluted storm water into the River Thames. Storm water is screened, settled in tanks and mixed with fully treated wastewater before it reaches the river. Work has been carried out at Mogden to increase the treatment capacity during and after heavy rain in our catchment. Regrettably, there are still times that this capacity is exceeded, and with nowhere else for the excess storm sewage to go, these discharges to the river are legal and consented.
