DROUGHT CONDITIONS

November 2023

All of North Alabama is now in an extreme drought. In an extreme drought NOAA states that the following occur:

Air quality is poor
Ground has noticeable cracks; road damage has occurred
Landscape growth is stunted and needs irrigation; Christmas tree growth is stunted
Large-scale hay shortages occur; producers sell livestock
Low flow in rivers and lakes affects recreation
Soybean pods shatter
Water mains break daily in large municipalities; water conservation is implemented
Wildfire count and fire danger continue to increase

We see the results of this drought in the water levels in our wells. The production of our two largest wells has decreased due to lack of available water. We ask that all customers voluntarily conserve water, primarily by reducing irrigation, at this time.

Please check back for further updates.
