Rain wasn't enough: Why Mallorca's reservoirs remain low

Answer

When is the best time of year to see Mallorca’s reservoirs fuller?

Reservoir levels in Mallorca usually depend on how much rain the island gets and how much of it can actually soak in. Wetter periods bring some relief, but if rainfall is brief or intense, the effect may be limited. The reservoirs tend to benefit most when rain is steady enough to reach the ground and support recharge.
