Germany’s Soaking Wet Drought…Helmholtz Drought Monitor Insists Drought Persists
By P Gosselin on 10. January 2024

Disconnected from reality: Despite heavy winter rains, flooding and DWD data, Germany’s Helmholtz Institute insists parts of Germany are “extremely dry”.
The “climate change-induced drought” in January 2024
By Frank Bosse

We already reported several times (here and here) on the Helmholtz Institute’s Drought Monitor.

In the meantime, there have been major floods, especially in north-western Germany, and also a lot of precipitation elsewhere. In Saxony, the DWD German national weather service recorded some 107 mm of precipitation in December, 2023, which is 78% more than the long-term mean. There was also an increase of 10% over the whole 2023 year.

Now let’s take a look at the drought monitor in the region and, as of January 5, 2024, it still shows areas in northeastern Saxony with extreme (dark red) and exceptional drought (red) in the total soil to a depth of 1.80 m.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

This shows how hard it is for eco-warriors to deal psychologically with the truth. :whistle:
