The UK's record-breaking dry start to the year is dramatically shown in these photos of the Howden and Woodhead reservoirs, in the Peak District, Derbyshire

According to the water company, Howden Reservoir can hold up to 8.9 million liters of water

But, as of May 12, the reservoir was holding just 56% of its capacity, or five million liters, compared with 75% at the same point in 2024

@Snoro Just in case you're actually in the UK: https://archive.is/PuEF9

I don't think it's properly rained in #Derbyshire for over a month.

It's nice as I can work outside nearly every day, but it's bad news in general...
