Natural Resources Wales declared drought status across North Wales and the Upper Severn as hot, dry weather, rising wildfire risk, and record-low river flows persist, affecting areas including North Gwynedd, Ynys Môn, South Gwynedd, Dee (Wales), and Clwyd. With July on track to be Wales’ driest in about 190 years, groundwater levels are falling and river temperatures are high, while officials urge waterwise use as the region moves into prolonged dry conditions.

About Natural Resources Wales

Natural Resources Wales is a Welsh Government sponsored body, which became operational from 1 April 2013, when it took over the management of the natural resources of Wales. It was formed from a merger of the Countryside Council for Wales, Environment Agency Wales, and the Forestry Commission Wales, and also assumed some other roles formerly performed by the Welsh Government.
