Anglian Water警告说,由于历史上的干旱状况和储量极低,联合王国各地水资源严重、长期短缺。 Anglian Water warns of severe, prolonged water shortages across the UK due to historic dry conditions and critically low reserves.

Anglian Water警告英国持续严重缺水, 以1976年以来最干燥的春天和夏季以及过去12个月中降雨量低于平均水平的10个月为例。 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. 尽管最近秋天下雨,但水库、河流和地下水仍然极低,特别是该区域一半的水来自枯竭的地下水。 Despite recent autumn rains, reservoirs, rivers, and groundwater remain critically low, especially as half the region’s water comes from parched groundwater. 干土能迅速吸收降雨,增加管道损坏和漏水的风险。 Dry soil absorbs rainfall quickly, increasing risks of pipe damage and leaks. 恢复需要到2026年4月的月平均降雨量增加一倍以上,超过2025年记录的降雨总量。 Recovery requires more than double the average monthly rainfall through April 2026—more than the total rain recorded in 2025. 水电公司敦促居民通过雨水桶、雨水滴水、泥浆和抗旱的景观美化来节约用水,强调必须采取集体行动保护供应。 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.
