A map from the Metropolitan Water Department shows where water consumption has increased fivefold during the heat wave.

The article reports on increased water consumption across various areas of Budapest and surrounding municipalities during extreme heat on June 29, 2026, compared to the average daily usage in 2025. The Fővárosi Vízművek (Budapest Waterworks) provided a map showing significant spikes in water demand, with some areas experiencing up to five times the usual consumption. Notably, the third district saw the highest increase, while other locations such as Budaörs, Pócsmegyer, Szigetmonostor, and parts of districts II, XVI, XVII, and XXII also recorded substantial rises. In contrast, certain areas like Kisorosz experienced a decline in water usage by over 10% compared to the 2025 average.
