Driest November on record

The current month is set to become the driest November since meteorological records began in 1775. The amount of precipitation was virtually unmeasurable, with the last proper rain having fallen on October 26. The Czech Meteorological Institute says that the average daily precipitation of half a millimetre was not recorded anywhere in the country in the last month. The dry spell is reportedly not causing problems for farming at the moment. Rainfall is expected at the weekend at the earliest.
