We have hit the 10 out of 10 drought index in #Copenhagen.
Our garden pond has a water level about 10cm lower than it should be. The plants in the garden are starting to suffer. None of the toads we heard calling appear to have bred successfully this year, though there are plenty of newts.
The rainwater tank is empty.
No rain in the forecast for at least the next 2 weeks.

@Ruth_Mottram We are not that bad (yet?) on this side of the Atlantic, but #Vermont is experiencing abnormally dry conditions and we've had record-breaking heat this week. 35 C yesterday!
Everything is still so green and lovely here, but I wonder how long it will last if this keeps up. A cold front is meant to come through tonight, at least, but we may not see rain from it.

@annejefferson a cold front came through here last night (check out the cool clouds!) But without a drop of rain, only more wind to further dry everything out.. 🙄
