Suffolk and 6 other counties in England declared a drought as hot weather continues.




Suffolk is now officially in a drought, as dry, hot weather continues.

Seven areas in central, eastern and southern England have been designated as drought zones by the Environment Agency.

The declaration follows record low rain and high temperatures.

Phil Garrigan, chairman of the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC), said: "More than 200 wildfires in just 12 days shows how quickly the risk can escalate when hot, dry conditions take hold.

"The scenes we’re seeing across parts of Europe are a stark reminder of what a changing climate means for fire and rescue services."

The NFCC has also warned that wildfire risks remain high across the UK, with eight ongoing incidents currently under national monitoring.
