Daily Water Watch: La Plata at 45.15 Meters

Day 19 of the metro rotation. This morning’s 5:00 chart from the Autoridad de Acueductos y Alcantarillados shows Carraízo at 37.30 meters — down 2 centimeters from yesterday, and La Plata at 45.15 meters — down 8 centimeters from yesterday.

This is the 16th entry in our daily chart check (yesterday’s is here), built the same way every morning — from AAA’s own numbers, read off its charts for our reservoir board.

Carraízo: down 2 cm

Carraízo kept sliding. This morning’s chart puts it at 37.30 meters — down 2 centimeters from yesterday, in the ajustes band. The next line on the chart — into the control band — sits at 37.00 meters, 0.30 meters below this morning’s reading. At AAA’s printed pace that is roughly 15 days out (straight-line date: 2026-09-10 — a projection, not a forecast; one wet afternoon moves it).

La Plata: down 8 cm

La Plata kept sliding. This morning’s chart puts it at 45.15 meters — down 8 centimeters from yesterday, in the observación band. The next line on the chart — into the ajustes band — sits at 44.90 meters, 0.25 meters below this morning’s reading. At AAA’s printed pace that is roughly 3.1 days out (straight-line date: 2026-08-30 — a projection, not a forecast; one wet afternoon moves it).

If your water comes from La Plata — Dorado, Guaynabo, Naranjito, Toa Alta, Toa Baja, Vega Alta, Bayamón, Cataño, Corozal — this is the reservoir to watch; AAA lists 130,828 client accounts on it.

The other rationing reservoir

Numbers from AAA’s Monitoreo Diario chart of 2026-08-26, read each morning for our reservoir board — where the levels, the bands, and the live rain gauges update daily. Day counts start 2026-08-08, when the metro rotation took effect. Straight-line dates are arithmetic, not forecasts.
