Summer heat in Berlin: pure sun and high risk of forest fire!

However, our region is also faced with the continuing drought. In several Brandenburg counties, including Spree-Neisse and Dahme-Spreewald, there is already a ban on water withdrawals. This ban concerns the withdrawal of water from rivers, streams or lakes for watering or filling containers. Another problem child is the increased risk of forest fires that has reached the second highest risk in Dahme-Spreewald and Elbe-Elster.

No weather is expected, which should be a real stroke of luck for all plantations and leisure activities.
