Weather
experts have expressed concerns that a "sunshine filled" summer of
"intense heat" will increase the risk of drought in Northern Ireland
this year.
American based weather forecasting service, AccuWeather Inc., conveyed
its concerns when it published the 2019 summer weather forecast for Europe on
Wednesday.
"Dry weather will dominate much of the summer across Ireland, southern
parts of the United Kingdom, the low countries and northern France," wrote
AccuWeather senior meteorologist, Eric Leister, on the official AccuWeather Inc. website.
"Temperatures will generally be at or above average from June into
August, but the most intense heat will be found across the interior of
Europe."
The report then went on to explain the possibility of drought in
Northern Ireland and the rest of the United Kingdom.
Lengthy dry spells will lead to drought concerns and threaten agriculture
as rain will be in short supply for much of Europe throughout the summer
months.
dry weather combined with above-normal temperatures and lengthy amounts of daily sunshine will lead to drought concerns throughout the region.
