 Well, 2003 is shaping up to be another year of drought, hydrologically speaking, and by hydrological I mean the water in our streams and in our reservoirs. Though spring precipitation is near normal, we continue to feel the impact of drought in our water storage system. I'm here today at Pathfinder Reservoir and you can see that we are a long ways from where we would like to be. On this particular reservoir, and this is just a single unit in an extensive water storage system, drought is felt first in upland areas. They are also the first to recover, but it takes lots of water, above average runoff to refill our reservoirs. The experts tell us that to recharge this system, we need runoff of 50% above average to get back to normal. So even though we see green grass, we will continue this year to feel the effects of drought because of the importance of stored water to city dwellers and agriculture. Those are the reasons that we built reservoirs in the first place. From the University of Wyoming Cooperative Extension Service, I'm Eric Peterson.
