We consider transport of a passive scalar advected by an irregular divergence-free vector field. Given any non-constant initial data is an element of H-loc(1)(R-d), d >= 2, we construct a divergence-free advecting velocity field v (depending on ) for which the unique weak solution to the transport equation does not belong to H-loc(1)(R-d) for any positive time. The velocity field v is smooth, except at one point, controlled uniformly in time, and belongs to almost every Sobolev space W-s,W-p that does not embed into the Lipschitz class. The velocity field v is constructed by pulling back and rescaling a sequence of sine/cosine shear flows on the torus that depends on the initial data. This loss of regularity result complements that in Ann. PDE, 5(1):Paper No. 9, 19, 2019. This article is part of the theme issue 'Mathematical problems in physical fluid dynamics (part 1)'.
