Answer
Why are Mallorca’s reservoirs still so low after rain and snow?
Recent rain and snow have helped only a little because the dry period has been long and the reservoirs were already very depleted. Mallorca’s main storage lakes, Gorg Blau and Cúber, remain around 30 percent full, which is not enough to quickly reverse months of water loss.
