Reservoirs in the Brecon Beacons are looking dryer than usual, with photographs showing decreased water levels as the hot weather continues. Photographs of Beacons Reservoir and Llwyn-on Reservoir, both in the Brecon Beacons, show lower water levels, with islands normally surrounded by water now instead surrounded by dry land.
The images show a wooded island in Beacons Reservoir, which is normally surrounded by water, instead in the middle of a mostly dry reservoir. Beacons Reservoir, in the Brecon Beacons National Park, is the furthest north of three reservoirs in the Taf Fawr valley. An aerial view of the landmark shows patchy dry areas, with some of the water having evaporated in the heat.
At Llwyn-on Reservoir, images show a bridge, which is usually underwater, visible and with people crossing over it as the water level has decreased. The reservoir is the largest of three reservoirs in the Taf Fawr valley. However, Welsh Water has said water resources across the majority of Wales are in a 'reasonably good position' despite the heat.
