# Western Cape dam levels have dropped below 60-percent, with the six major dams now at a combined 59.7-percent. This is down from 60.7-percent last week and from 62.1-percent this time last year. The province’s largest dam, Theewaterskloof, is at 60-percent, while Voëlvlei sits at 58.5-percent. This decline comes despite recent cold weather and snowfall. Releasing the latest figures, the City of Cape Town reminded residents of the 2017–2018 ‘Day Zero’ crisis and urged them to keep saving water.
