Today we have plenty of rain!!
Weird for this to be a celebration in the uk.Now thinking about washing my car for the first time this summer. Washing our cars in the rain not only saves loads of water, saves time bothering to wash the bubbles off after and a tiny bit off our big phat water bills

Unraveling The Drivers Of Water Shortage Across Spatial Scales And Sectors In Colorado's West Slope River Basins

“…Colorado’s West Slope basins provide nearly 70% of the inflows to Lake Powell and are also essential to communities, agriculture, industry, hydropower, and downstream Colorado River users.
To examine the wide range of possible futures, [they] simulated 2.1 million years, defining 20,000 plausible scenarios applying changes to streamflow, snowmelt timing, drought persistence, and agricultural, municipal, and industrial water demand.
A key finding is that there is 𝗻𝗼 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀. The most influential drivers vary by basin, sector, and water user. In some areas, shortages are driven primarily by persistent low-flow conditions or changing snowmelt timing. In others, increasing municipal, industrial, or irrigation demand plays a larger role. This suggests that adaptation strategies must be tailored to specific basins and users rather than relying on a single, system-wide solution. Other major findings are
• West Slope deliveries to Lake Powell could fall more than 50% below the current median baseline
• Storage in major West Slope reservoirs could decline 40–55% below historical medians
These results underscore the need for water-planning approaches that account for deep uncertainty, persistent drought, shifting snowmelt patterns, and sector-specific demand…”

Snow Droughts Cast Shadow on Global Food Supply
Snow droughts are reducing water for farming. This means less food and higher prices for everyone. Learn how it affects you.

Less snow means less water for crops. This year's snow drought could mean food prices rise by 10% compared to last year.

"The Graham-Mebane Water Treatment Plant remains under repair due to flooding during Tropical Storm Chantal. With the water treatment plant still under repair, the City has less than 2 days of drinking water at current usage. Due to the limited amount of water available to the City, the City Manager is issuing a public declaration of water shortage as provided in the City of Mebane Water Shortage Plan adopted by the City Council in 2019 to more effectively protect the health and safety of our residents and to place in effect the restrictive provisions within the plan.
The restrictions could remain in place for multiple days until the Water Treatment Plant is producing potable drinking water; all industries, businesses, offices, and non-residential units should cease operations. The exceptions are for grocery stores, health care facilities, and drug stores.
The Water Shortage Response Plan requires residents and businesses not to use any water other than limited drinking purposes when bottled water is not available, limited restroom usage (not including showers), and required medical usage. We urge everyone to use bottled water or other alternative sources. City personnel and local law enforcement will enforce the Water Shortage Plan. All regulations will continue until the Graham-Mebane Water Treatment plant is back in operation, and we have no estimated date at this time..." -
