District-Wide Conditions for January 17, 2012
The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) is issuing the following briefing:
Rainfall levels have been below average during the first few months of the dry season across the District’s 16-county region. Most areas of the District have yet to see a drop of rainfall in 2012. However, cooler temperatures and low evapotranspiration rates have allowed water supplies to remain stable.
A drier-than-normal dry season is expected to continue with the effects of the La Niña weather pattern, indicating a potential return to water shortage conditions in the spring. As a result, the region remains under a water shortage warning.
