Water Emergency in Valldemossa: When the Wells Whisper

Answer

Why is the water pressure low in Valldemossa right now?

Valldemossa has reduced pressure in the mains network to slow down water use and avoid a complete supply failure. The immediate cause is drought and falling groundwater and well levels, but the situation is also linked to longer-term strain on the local network. Some higher areas are already seeing very limited or interrupted flow.
