Europe has been grappling with unusual heat and drought conditions recently, impacting multiple regions across the continent. A late-spring heat dome set the stage for what became a series of oppressive heat domes.
These extreme weather events have significantly altered Europe’s landscapes. Once verdant areas have turned a dusty brown, marking a stark transformation. This has also led to record-low water levels in major European rivers like the Seine, Rhine, and Danube.
The European Space Programme has been closely monitoring the situation. Their data indicates these rivers have been significantly affected, highlighting the severity of the drought.
