The British government said on Friday that parts of southern, central and eastern England have officially gone into drought status, following a prolonged period of hot and dry weather.

“All water companies have assured us that essential supplies remain safe,” Britain’s Secretary of State for Water Steve Double said in a statement. “We are better prepared than ever for dry spells, but we will continue to closely monitor the situation, including the effects on farmers and the environment, and take action as necessary.”
