By prefectural decree of October 27, 2026, the upper Vienne basin, which includes Feytiat, has been placed under drought alert until October 31, 2026.

This decision follows the intense heat of this summer. Despite recent rainfall, water resources remain fragile, and precipitation is insufficient to restore the situation.
Several restrictions remain in effect, including prohibitions on watering gardens and green spaces, watering sports fields between 8 AM and 8 PM, filling private swimming pools over 1 m³ (with exceptions), washing vehicles at home, and cleaning facades, roofs, and sidewalks, unless done by a collective or professional company.
Everyone is invited to continue their efforts to conserve water resources.
