Drought-hit Europe could face three more dry months, EU report says

Parts of the European Union could face three more months of warmer and drier conditions as Europe suffers a major drought that has fuelled forest fires, dried up rivers and devastated crops.
“Warmer and drier than usual conditions are likely to occur in the western Euro-Mediterranean region in the coming months until November 2022,” notably in Spain and Portugal, the EU’s Copernicus programme said in a report for the month of August.
