Reservoirs have benefited from the country’s wettest March in more than 40 years.

As a result, water levels appear to have increased, with huge visible differences compared with the summer. The wet March has also come after a dry February, alleviating concerns that levels may be lower than normal as we enter spring and summer. A spokesman added: “This is despite only seeing 17 per cent of the rainfall we would expect in February. This is down to the hard work of our operational teams over the winter months, the millions of pounds we have spent moving water around our network and the outstanding response from our customers in thinking about their water usage through last year’s exceedingly hot and dry summer.
