Its Always Raining, How are we in a Drought?

At the moment we are meant to be in the lovely warm month of May. But every time I look outside all I see is a dull and grey sky and lots of rain. Then I hear on the news that a drought exists. I wonder to myself how that is possible. So I decided to conduct some research.

Through my very short reasearch, mainly because I don't have much time, found out some interesting facts about water:
  1. On Average, Each person in the UK uses 150 litres of water per day.
  2.  It would take 50 days of Solid rain to get us out of this drought.
  3. The Key to water efficiency is reducing waste, not restricting use!
