There was no significant rainfall for 32 days in France during the winter, a situation that worries the French, who are still recovering from a severe drought period experienced in the summer of 2022.
According to an American newspaper Barrons, precipitation has been less than a millimeter a day since January 21, and this lack of rain has already surpassed the record set in the spring of 2020. Winter is a crucial period for replenishing water supplies, and the lack of rain is starting to worry the French. . Since 1959, when rainfall began to be recorded, France has not had so many days without rain.
Météo-France said the country’s current dry spell is unlikely to last long as rain is predicted in the south on Wednesday.
The academic organization World Weather Attribution, which studies calculations of the impact of climate change on extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts and storms, has warned that these periods of extreme drought will become more frequent with global warming.
Spain is also concerned about current water supplies.
The previous dry winter record in France was 22 days in 1989.
