Dry autumn affects water levels in reservoirs
The ongoing dry, warm autumn, combined with a hot summer, has reduced water levels in reservoirs and worsened drought conditions across the mainland. While temperatures are expected to drop starting tomorrow, 2 November, significant rainfall is not forecast for the mainland until Sunday, 8 November.
Why it matters
While there is no immediate restriction on household water use reported, the ongoing drought conditions across the country mean that municipal water restrictions or conservation measures could be implemented if rainfall remains low.Correio da ManhãRead original ↗
