The National Water Reserve continues to grow at a significant pace that will continue to leave the rain, which exacerbates the situation of many rivers already loaded.
This week was distinguished by Lawrence rainThe tanks increased by nearly five points (4.9) and there are 65.8 % of their total capacity. As a whole, they store 36,867 cubic hectares (HM3) of water, according to the bulletin published by the Ministry of Environmental Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO). This means that in only seven days, the swamps won 2751 cubic hectares (equivalent to five and a half years of water consumption in the Madrid community). This is the largest flow that has contributed in a week since April 2024.
Compared to last year, the tanks are nine points over them and store 5,000 hectares more cubic. Its position is also better regarding the average past decade, approximately six points above.
All hydrographic ponds, with the exception of Cantabria, have increased their reserves, but some did it amazingly. This is the state of the inner ponds of Calonia, which has risen thirteen points, or is always required with the water of the Guadakuvir Basin, and is one of the most common points, which in only one week added 570 cubic intensity, which means nothing less than seven points in the last seven days, which puts its preserves in 50 % of the capabilities. Of the 49 tanks of this sink, at least 11 100 % cabinets and 12 others are higher than 85 %, which has never been unparalleled for five years. The other is one of the most favorite ponds of Lawrence Kan Tajos (7.5 points) and Guadiana (5.5 points).
The miteco bulletin indicates that the Atlantic Ocean slope tanks are 65 % (five points more than a week) and the Mediterranean, to 67 %, three other points. The safe pelvis continues in the tail, with 24.5 % reserves, although two points more than last week. Through independent societies, they are all more than 50 % of their ability, with the exception of the Murcia region (by 33 %). Through the provinces, which are worse than this is Almeria, which does not reach 10 %. They are followed by Albacete (20.6 %) and Alicante (28 %),
By the regions, East Kanbrian, which is 82.2 %; West Cancer to 72.2 %; Mile Millie by 73.4 %; Galicia Costa by 77 %; The inner ponds of the Basque country to 95.2 %; Duero in 75.9 %; Tagos to 75 %; Godiana at 56.4 %; Guadalquivir, 50.3 %; Red, Odiel and stones at 94.8 %; 57.1 % júcar; And EBRO at 83.4 %.
Less than 50 % is Guadalite Parbat and the Andalusian Mediterranean basin, both of which are 44.6 %; 45.2 % internal ponds of Calonia; And safe in 24.5 %.
Rainted march, but not registration
Miteco notes that the rains in these seven days have been abundant throughout the peninsula and that the maximum occurred in Cordoba, where 139 liters were registered per square meter.
Thanks to the rains of the past weeks, in all Spain, it has accumulated until March 16, 97 liters per square meter, when the natural average of March is a full 59 liter. Currently, do not reach March 2018, which was the most powerful in the chain with 162 liters. In its first 16 days, about 135 liters fell, or about 40 liters more than it was the day, according to the data provided by the Meteorological Agency (AEMET).
For Jorge Okina, a professor of regional geographical analysis at the University of Alkantei, this mode of abundance and its impact on the tanks allows us to believe that we left behind the most severe phase of dryness, ensuring the width of both water consumption and agricultural risks at least even after the summer. “We are five thousand cubic hectares above last year, and we are much higher than the average of the past ten years. We will spend several weeks, it will not be necessary to make water expenses. In addition, there is still the second half of March will be rainy. ”
The expert contributed to a revealing fact in this regard. “During the summer in Spain, nearly 10,000 cubic hectares were spent and only in these weeks of March, we have 5000, which must be added to the sinks that carry ice, about 3000 cubic hectares. Meaning, we can say that we already have 80 % of all planned water expenses in the summer, which is when we have the largest number of water demand in Spain for irrigation, tourism and evaporation itself for high temperatures. ”
In addition, according to AEMET, Spain will continue throughout this week under the influence of Atlantic storms, which will continue to leave rain in large areas of the region. After a relative truce on Wednesday, the fronts associated with a new storm in the Atlantic Ocean will take Martinho from the rain on Thursday to a good part of the peninsula, except at the southeastern end. There will be abundant rains at the southern Galicia points, the central system and Western Andalusia. The situation will be somewhat similar in the following days, with abundant rains in the West Peninsula and less likely in the island of the Peninsula Medium and Balira. In the Canary Islands, the possibility of bathing in the islands of more relief will continue.
