The dammed water in Spain falls once more for one more week and represents solely 50.1% of the overall capability of the reservoirs. The reserves are solely 230 cubic hectometres away from falling beneath final 12 months’s stage. In the final week alone, 326 had been misplaced. If final 12 months the rains allowed the reservoirs to fill between February and May, within the coming days, the warmth and dryness will additional cut back the dammed water

The lack of rain and excessive temperatures have prompted a lack of 326 cubic hectometres, leaving the overall at 28,074 hm3. Last 12 months’s stage at this level was 27,844 hm3 and the development was upward.
If final 12 months the rains allowed the reservoirs to fill between February and May, within the coming days, the warmth and dryness will additional cut back the dammed water.
