Groundwater levels highest since 2015

Groundwater levels in Czechia are at their highest since 2015, the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute reported on social media site X on Tuesday. Some underground wells and reservoirs that have been empty for several years now have water in them once again, wrote hydrologist Martin Zrzavecký from the institute.

Czechia has been suffering from long-term drought for many years, but the last two weeks have seen a lot of precipitation in the country, as well as snowmelt in the mountains due to the warmer temperatures.
