Apele Române: Următoarele două săptămâni sunt critice: Dunărea ar putea scădea în 6 august sub nivelul minim din 2003

The Danube River is expected to reach critically low water levels in Romania, potentially dropping below the historical minimum recorded in August 2003. Current measurements show a significant decrease in water flow, with levels at 1,550 cubic meters per second, which is about three times lower than the average for this time of year. The National Administration 'Apele Române' warns of severe drought conditions affecting not only the Danube but also several internal rivers. In response, authorities are planning complex hydrotechnical interventions to increase water flow to critical areas. The government has declared a national alert due to reduced electricity production linked to low water levels, urging citizens to conserve water and energy during this critical period.
