While America is experiencing the devastating results of too much water, we are now on level 4 water restrictions. Hand held hosing is not permitted; watering new turf is not permitted; cleaning cars is not permitted (except to clean windows using a bucket); house washing is not permitted; private pools and spas may not be topped up. We are only allowed to water gardens using watering cans or buckets, and even that is now restricted to 3 days per week before 9am or after 5pm.
It's predicted that we'll be on level 5 restrictions by Christmas, meaning that the water supply will be less than 20%. In other parts of Australia, people are only allowed to wash clothes once per week and their water supply is down to 10%.
Meanwhile Spring has arrived with much warmer weather already evident. We are really looking forward to heading to the beach on September 24th for a weeks' holiday.
