flag Anglian Water warns of severe, prolonged water shortages across the UK due to historic dry conditions and critically low reserves.

flag Anglian Water warns of ongoing severe water shortages in the UK, citing its driest spring and summer since 1976 and 10 of the past 12 months with below-average rainfall. flag Despite recent autumn rains, reservoirs, rivers, and groundwater remain critically low, especially as half the region’s water comes from parched groundwater. flag Dry soil absorbs rainfall quickly, increasing risks of pipe damage and leaks. flag Recovery requires more than double the average monthly rainfall through April 2026—more than the total rain recorded in 2025. flag The utility urges residents to conserve water through rain barrels, rain-time watering, mulching, and drought-resistant landscaping, stressing the need for collective action to protect supplies.
