Drought declared across parts of mid and south Wales as Pembrokeshire hosepipe ban comes into force. A temporary hosepipe ban will come into effect today () for over 60,000 households served by Llys y Fran reservoir (pictured) in Pembrokeshire. The Temporary Use Ban has been introduced following the driest year since 1976, with the county seeing just over 60% of expected rainfall between March and July. Coupled with record temperatures and record levels of demand for water, water resources in Pembrokeshire have hit drought levels. PIC © Andrew Lloyd
