  We’ve been getting tons of rain here, but we are still in an outdoor water ban.

  Between 8-5, no lawn watering (except golf courses and businesses), no washing your car (except at a car wash), no watering your plants (except for farms and garden stores).

  It’s not because of drought, but because one of our water sources is offline due to elevated PFAA, so they are blending water from other reservoirs, and those sources combined can’t make up the extra demand.

    It is easier for the government to reduce water usage of businesses than individuals. It saves water when they can mandate that the car washes save water.

  I kind of miss having a nice, long, hot, thoughtful shower…

    But now you can feel responsible and morally superior to the silly water-wasters

      I envy silly water wasters because I miss my long thoughtful hot showers.
