The Environment Agency has categorized water shortages in England as 'of national importance' amid the driest months since 1976. Five regions are affected and reservoirs are down to 67.7% full. Farmers face low yields, which could have a devastating financial impact on farming. Meteorologists predict the phenomenon will become more frequent due to climate change, and the government plans to build new reservoirs.
