Drought in Brittany: drinking water shortage and risk of cuts
On October 25, 2026, Finistère is facing a scarcity of its drinking water resource despite calls to save water, in a context of repeated droughts and consumption that is not decreasing. The next day, Côtes-d'Armor are facing a worrying situation: water reserves remain at a low level, pressure has been reduced in several households, and cuts are feared. On October 27, after four deficit months, October shows a slight rainfall surplus in Brittany, but drinking water reserves still need to be rebuilt, while dry weather is forecast for ten days.
