Over the past weeks, major dams in Morocco have seen water levels recede due to soaring temperatures, intensifying the country’s water crisis resulting from weak annual rainfall.
According to the Ministry of Equipment and Water, dams’ fill rate dropped to 28.2% by mid-August.
This decline, attributed to excessive temperatures causing water evaporation, contrasts with the 32.3% fill rate in May after substantial rainfall, especially snowfall in the south.
The onset of a hot summer in June led to a decrease in dam volumes, highlighting the fragile nature of water reserves.
