UK weather. Drought conditions see a farmer harrowing a field, dust clouds form in his wake. Crantock Cornwall UK.
A farmer raises dust clouds in wake of his harrow as he attempts to prepare his fields for planting. The field is in Crantock Cornwall UK. The soil precariously dry, and not very suitable for planting.
The Environment Agency's National Drought Group meets at lunch time tomorrow 12th august to decide if restrictions on water usage should be imposed on new areas including South West England. It meets and looks at statistics including rainfall, how much water is left in rivers, reservoirs and lakes, as well as temperature forecasts over the coming weeks to decide whether drought conditions have been reached.
Water firms are already operating under their drought plans, so if an official drought is declared little will change for people living in the region. But the declaration could mean a series of restrictions on water use are introduced - including possible hosepipe bans.
What is a drought?
A drought is an extended period of low rainfall. Some droughts are short and intense – for example, a hot, dry summer – while others are long and take time to develop over multiple seasons.
While there is no one set definition for a drought to be triggered, there are three main types - an environmental drought, an agricultural drought and a water supply drought.
Reduced river flows, wild fires, insufficient moisture within soils on agricultural land and diminishing water reserves are all taken into account.
