As a result of continuing high temperatures and limited rainfall, the Energy and Environment Cabinet Friday announced a water shortage watch for 27 counties in Kentucky, including Fayette and surrounding counties according to a news release. A
watch means the extreme weather has the "potential to threaten the normal availability of drinking water supply sources," according to the release.
Citizens living in watch areas should closely monitor local news for notification from water suppliers on reducing demands for water, the cabinet advised.
State Drought Coordinator Bill Caldwell said high temperatures combined with precipitation deficits frequently create surges in the demand for water, often exceeding a water supplier's ability to meet that demand.Kentucky American Water, which has three plants providing water services to nearly half a million Central Kentucky residents, has said its customers should not be concerned about water supply restrictions.
TVNL Comment: Why don't people in these regions, who so loudly denounce Climate Change, just pray for more water? Just asking.
