NO Water for You

It is official...League City is now under manditory water rationing.

After a month of no offical measurable rainfall and over a week of 100+ degree days something has to be done. According to the weathermen we are to continue with record highs into next week and maybe longer. We have had a couple of 5 minute rain showers the last 2 days but it's not enough to even wet the driveway.

Our house is allowed to water the grass on Monday and Wednesday only between the hours of 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. Thank goodness we have a sprinkler system on a timer.

Our grass and plants will definately suffer but when the good Lord decides to send rain they will perk back up as long as I can keep the roots alive.

UPDATE...Things are getting seriously dry.

Thursday we were notified restraunts can no longer serve water to patrons unless specifically requested.

You can water folage aka blooming plants as long as you have a spray end nozel on your hose. This can be done between the hours of 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. Absolutely no running hoses!

They will be patroling and any violation will result in a fine up to $500.

One positive--NO MOSQUITOS!!!

Yuck! You could always siphon the pool if things get drastic! Not that I would recommend that. Hope it rains soon, very soon!
