The Hungarian drought is visible from space!

Almost half of the average rainfall is missing this year. Hungary has had its driest seven months since 1901. The drought situation is so severe that it is now visible from space.

The IdÅ‘kép Facebook page has shared a photo that shows the severity of the situation. Between 10 August 2021 and 10 August 2022, Hungary turned completely yellow. Ten out of Hungary’s 12 water boards had to be put on water emergency alert.
