Default So when's the next water shortage due?

It's been ****ing down for months and the worst floods in living
memory. What that tells me is that we're shortly due for hosepipe bans
and water restrictions given that the water authorities in this
country seem to be totally unable to provide for uninterrupted
supplies of the stuff in one of the wettest countries on earth. The
usual excuse is that rain doesn't help them much because it just runs
away and doesn't actually get into the underground water table. Maybe
if it rained underground more instead of above it?


In the SE? Sooner rather than later as you lack storage for the water
and have too many people.


There is an extremely large reservoir located underground in SELondon.
Driven over it many times and never knew it was there.

Still I'm not a meteorologist so what do I know?


Not a lot by the sound of it.
