According to news from the Spanish side on November 3, local time, Vigo, a major town in the Galician Autonomous Region known as the “city with the highest rainfall in Spain,” is facing a serious water crisis. Affected by continuing droughts and drastic reductions in rainfall, the amount of water stored in major local reservoirs has declined sharply, triggering heated disputes between local governments and autonomous regions over whether to enter a “state of emergency.” According to reports, as the main source of water in Bigo and nine surrounding towns, the water storage capacity has now dropped to a very low level of 33.6%, compared to 77.3% in the same period last year. Vigo Mayor Abel Caballero publicly warned that according to the current consumption rate, the city's high-quality drinking water with full quality assurance can only last for 22 days. Caballero harshly criticized the Galician Autonomous Region government for not including the region as a “state of emergency” so far, and called on higher authorities to immediately take substantial intervention measures.
