Dams’ water levels continue to drop

Water levels of various dams continue to recede, with La Mesa inching closer to its lowest since 1998, the weather bureau said on Wednesday.

The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) recorded La Mesa water level at 68.79 meters, 0.06 meter lower than Tuesday’s reading. It is just a tad away from the lowest recorded level of 68.75 meters in 1998.
