Ich habe heute Kalopanagiotis, Lefka und Kafiizides besucht und sie sind voller Wasser. In der Zwischenzeit sagen die Nachrichten, dass alle Stauseen bis zum Ende des 2025 leer sind. Ich kann die Punkte nicht anschließen. Lassen Sie uns diskutieren? Außerdem habe ich nur 2 Jahre in Zypern gelebt. Erinnern Sie sich an die gleichen Zeiten ohne Regen?
PS Es gibt den Kafizides -Damm auf einem beigefügten Foto.

If Kouris is empty there is a drought. It feeds most of Cyprus.
Unfortunately those are some of the smallest ones in Cyprus, drove by kouris today visually looked under 25%

Kalopanagiotis is indeed high, but it is a tiny dam by comparison. The total storage is only at 25% and we’re coming out of the rain season.
Based on average annual consumption, the current stored amount won’t last long. There isn’t much to discuss. Just maths.
I’m surprised there isn’t more serious action being taken.
They are small and in the mountains and we’ve had a bit of snow so they fill up.
The bigger dams are almost empty because not enough rain and it’s so dry that when it does rain nothing manages to actually make it to the dams.
Today I realized that I don’t even know where water is coming from in my village of Agioi Trimithias. Is it a groundwater from the wells?
If we reach 30-40 degrees from April to October and we have lots of tourists, then the [Water balance ](https://www.moa.gov.cy/moa/wdd/wdd.nsf/page10_en/page10_en?opendocument) might be low. Normally, we have a positive balance, but we need to always be careful with water usage.
Also, these 3 are very small dams, so their reserves will be easily depleted if we have a difficult summer.
Fun facts:
Total capacity: Kafilzides 113k m³, Lefka 368k m³, Kalopanayiotis 363 m³
Our top 3 dams total capacity: Kouris 115m m³ , Asprokremmos 52m m³, Evretou 24m m³
I believe in 2008 germasogeia dam was completely dry, you could walk around in it. Around 2003 we had no water in most of the dams, and the fresh water was delivered by tankers. The water supply was every second day if I remember correctly. You can see the statistics for last 10 years here: https://www.moa.gov.cy/moa/wdd/Wdd.nsf/page18_en/page18_en?opendocument
Oh 100% there is draught. Barely any rain this year unfortunaty
