How are the mussells doing?

Atlanta's water supply, Lake Lanier, is about 14 feet below full yet and not much rain can be expected this summer. Evaporation doesn't help either.
Are we going to be able to let downstream have any much? What will the level be next fall?

I suppose Fayette County (most of it) could get by if we conserve until fall. But I'm not betting on not having to share it with those with none usable.

However we still are filling swimming pools, watering grass and bushes, washing cars, and letting what industry we have go at it!

It is kinda like the wars we have---ignore it and it will go away.
Where are our brave politicians? I suppose they might suddenly invent some lurid tale soon and try to make us believe it, that something new has happened and they simply must act NOW!
Too late.

I have a feeling that Florida is going to share some leftover hurricanes with us this year.

Oh, I see.
Well, your plan is better than our leaders and politician's plan!
Neither has a snowballs chance in Albany of working!

True, doing nothing is not going to work, and remnants of hurricanes are notoriously hard to steer.
