Yes, we have had this blue sky with big warm yellow thing in the air since half march or so.
Being from Belgium it is very unusual since the two months preceding that simply offered the typical relentless eternal rain causing the usual widespread flooding of all low lying areas.

At the end of that wet period all of a sudden there were happy news flashes: yippee, ground water levels are back to normal again !!!.

Roughly 6 weeks of this blue sky with warm yellow ball thing later they are screaming blue murder again that water supplies will be extremely low this summer.

OK, so we have had two or three really dry summers in a row and maybe a third or fourth coming up. That only causes posing one question: why haven't all the blithering experts/politicians/leaders done anything in the mean time? Too busy maintaining their private swimming pools?

I am sure it could not all have been sorted in that sort of short time frame but at least something could have been started/initiated/suggested to alleviate some of the potential problems but no: simply maintaining business as usual is far easier. The usual total radio silence has happened, it just makes you wonder why on earth we have elected any of them. Sigh | :sigh:
