    Recent Changes (October 6 — 8, 2026)

    Thursday's bulletin, two days since Tuesday: total storage 35.55% (103.4 MCM) — down from Tuesday's 35.64% (103.6 MCM), the same slow drawdown pace continuing. Arminou accelerated its climb to 61.6% (+0.6pp over two days), remaining the only Southern Conveyor dam still rising. Achna at 8.3% and Argaka at 43.5% both held their plateau for a second straight bulletin. Kalopanagiotis remains the only dam overflowing, unchanged at 100%. The gap over last year holds at 23.6 points. Season inflow so far: 0.43 MCM. The Arminou→Kouris transfer remains at zero.

    Notable movements (vs. October 6):

    • Arminou 61.6% (+0.6pp) — rise accelerates, only Southern Conveyor dam still climbing
    • Achna 8.3% (unchanged) — plateau holds for a second bulletin
    • Argaka 43.5% (unchanged) — plateau holds for a second bulletin
    • Kalopanagiotis 100% — unchanged, still the only dam overflowing
    • Kouris 36.9% (-0.1pp) — barely moved

    Desalination

    Most tap water now comes from the sea. Desalinated water goes straight into the drinking-water network, never into a dam, so each cubic metre of it is one the dams do not have to supply.

    Drinking water produced each week by the desalination units and by the treatment plants that take water from the dams, m³ a day. Only weeks with a published bulletin are shown; there is none for August.

    300 replays of past years' weather (since 1995) from today's level, with drawdown that grows with the water stored. The median is exceeded in half of them; 1 in 10 end below the dry line and 1 in 10 above the wet line. Cards show when storage drops below 7% capacity — the point where water restrictions typically begin.
