Drought

[Hey Adrien!]

What's that I hear? Is it rain? It still rains in Connecticut?

The streams have dried up and the lawns of southwestern Connecticut have turned a shade of ochre due to our current drought: we haven't had measurable rain since June 27th. Combining this along with our incoming week-long heat wave has bummed me out, both in the short team of hating the heat/humidity (we don't have HVAC in our 1890s house), but also worried for our planet.

How has the recent drought affected your area?

I stopped letting the water run when I brush my teeth. Not all heroes wear capes.

I’ve tried to pee a little more. I figure it’ll eventually work its way back into the water table.

You’re welcome!

Droughts and Floods are ALWAYS CYCLICAL...They come and go over time.... some are longer and some are shorter... It is just the way it is...
