The water level of Lake Balaton has dropped, but is still optimal for the summer season
In the last twenty days, the average water level of Lake Balaton has decreased by ten centimeters and currently stands at 110 centimeters, reports hirbalaton.hu. Although it is ten centimeters below the summer operating water level maximum, the current water level is still considered optimal for mid-summer.
On windy days, the water level of the lake can decrease by one centimeter per day. At the moment, the Sió lock is closed and the water temperature at Sióf is 28 degrees Celsius. According to the weather forecasts, cloud migrations and occasional showers may occur, but significant water supply is not expected in the coming days – writes hirbalaton.hu.
The windy weather can cause further subsidence in the water level of Lake Balaton, so it is important that visitors and local residents monitor the condition of the lake. In the middle of the summer season, the development of the lake’s water level can also be decisive from the point of view of tourism, since the water level and water temperature are extremely important factors for those vacationing on the shores of Lake Balaton.
