Research and analysis: Monthly water situation: national reports for England 2016

These reports collect information from the Environment Agency, the Met Office and water companies that measure and monitor:

• the amount of rain that falls
• how dry the soils are and how much rain they can soak up
• the amount of water flowing in rivers
• the amount of water stored below ground in aquifers and above ground in reservoirs

They also present a forward look for river flow and groundwater.
