Will we be able to flush for long?

NOTICE

Stage 2 water restrictions in effect for The Woodlands:

Because of excessive water use in The Woodlands stemming from the excessively dry weather conditions, Stage 2 voluntary water restrictions are in effect. All Woodlands residents are urged to limit outdoor water activities like filling ornamental fountains, filling pools and washing vehicles. Residential irrigation schedules are as follows: addresses ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7, and 9) are limited to Wednesdays and Saturdays. Addresses ending in even numbers (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8) should water on Thursdays and Sundays. Irrigation guidelines include no more than 1 inch per week in no more than 2 applications per week. All watering should cycle during the nighttime hours and be completed by 4 a.m.

If water use does not subside, Stage 3 mandatory restrictions will be implemented.

Will we be forced to only flush for #2? The lawns are turning brown. It has rained since April. Climate change? I suspect.

I guess they will see who has a green lawn and issue tickets.....
