Dry, Dry, Dry!
>> Jan 26, 2010
Who knew that Hawaii County has been under a drought declaration since 2007? Not me! Apparently, the effects of El Nino are worsening. We are expected to have dry weather through May. Folks on catchment water systems are already buying water and some are waiting 2 weeks for delivery!!!
"On Friday, the Department of Water Supply issued a water conservation notice for the hard hit areas of Naalehu and Waiohinu to South Point, asking water consumers in affected areas to reduce their usage by 10 percent."
I am glad that we have a well, but I think that we too could see some issues if the water table drops too low and our pump starts to suck air!?!
