We would have almost forgotten it with the rains of the last few weeks, but the drought is still there. In Haute-Savoie, the situation is improving a little. The sectors of Chéran, in the south of the department, and Dranses, on the shores of Lake Geneva, go from the “crisis” level, the highest, to the heightened alert level.
Restrictions still in place
No change regarding the other sectors of the department, and not really any change regarding the restrictions either. He is still forbidden to wash your car or water your garden between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.
If the prefecture of Haute-Savoie always calls for the vigilance of users to save water, it specifies that the rivers of the department are gradually returning to levels close to normal and groundwater is beginning to recharge, thanks to last week’s rainfall.
