Wettest April For A Century Ends Drought

The video discusses the impact of recent heavy rainfall on drought conditions in England. It highlights how the rain has replenished groundwater levels and filled reservoirs, particularly in Yorkshire, the Midlands, and the Southwest, lifting drought status in many areas. However, drought persists in the southeast and East Anglia, where hosepipe bans remain. Despite record rainfall in April and early May, the Environment Agency warns that a prolonged dry spell could lead to a return of drought conditions.
