Rain Provides Relief For Some; More Showers Possible Today
June 29, 2011
Most of the area had at least a little rain on Tuesday. Some areas received fairly significant rain considering our extreme drought, including Walnut Hill with 0.7 inches and Jay with 1.7 inches.
Pictured above is the large retention pond along West Highway 4 at Northview High School — an indicator of just how severe our drought conditions are. Almost dry Tuesday morning, the pond was at the lowest level since the school opened about 15 years ago, except for one time the pond was purposely drained for repairs.
