In the Netherlands, the 2026 summer drought just isn't over yet. Precipitation deficit (evaporation minus rainfall) is going up again in a warm and dry September week, ending the season in the top 5% of driest years on record. At the end of the month, the deficit will be ~3 times higher than in a median year.
