A Drought of Certainty: Britain's Weather Woes Worsen The Met Office's recent warnings about rainfall potentially failing to reverse drought conditions in England and Wales serve as a stark reminder of the inadequacies in our understanding of the weather.
Chief meteorologist Will Lang cautioned that it's not just the amount of rain that's the problem, but also the uncertainty surrounding its impact.
Seventy one percent of England is currently in drought, with major cities and holiday hotspots affected. The South East has been particularly parched, receiving as little as one percent of expected rainfall in July.
