Lake Vyrnwy water levels have gone up and down during the year
But now there are positive signs with the levels increasing to almost half in October, before hitting over 60 per cent this month according to data from the water firm. And Yorkshire Water said the county had the same amount of rainfall in September and October as it did over the whole summer, from April to the end of August, but that region is still officially classed as in drought.
“We are confident that a normal level of rainfall throughout the autumn and winter will refill our reservoirs, however we also need to be conscious of the impacts of climate change and be prepared should the drier weather continue throughout the rest of the year.
