Summary

edit
Description
English: According to the national meteorological organisation of Portugal – Instituto Português do Mar e da Atmosfera (IPMA) – 97% of the Portuguese territory is affected by “severe drought” conditions, following unusually warm temperatures and lower than average precipitations. The past month was in fact the warmest May in 92 years, with an average temperature of 19.19 °C, combined with an average precipitation of only 8.9 mm. The drought has severely affected the Bravura Reservoir, situated in southern Portugal, which was at 14.6% of its capacity in May 2022. The effects of water scarcity on the reservoir are visible when comparing the images acquired by Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 14 June 2017 and 8 June 2022.
