Red drought alert..?

[Steve]

A passing rustic in Montmorillon tells me the Vienne is on red drought alert.

News to me....but there again a lot of things pas me by.  Not.

Haven't seen any newspaper billboards screaming about the subject but he tells me the Vienne is now one of more than 60 departments on red alert.

I assume this means no filling of swimming pools, no watering the jardin, no washing of the voiture etc etc.

But is it true?

Two options for you Admiral...

On the propluvia site you need to click on "86" on the map and then it will zoom in, then click on "Monty" for a little more detailed information - but the better site is my first suggestion.
