Why would a city have to have a resolution to pray for rain?
Looks like to me that the citizens would have enough sense to pray without the government telling them to.
People in West Tx. have been using prayer just to survive forever.
ping!

Obviously the drought and subsequent downpours were both the result of Global Warming. The return to normal precipitation, should that occur, is also predicted by Global Warming. It will hit us two days before the day after tomorrow (which never comes).
America needs more reservoirs.
For several weeks our local weather reporters have been crying the blues about our rain deficit - we were a few inches below average. Our reservoirs were still full.
Then Ernesto came through.
No more "rain deficit".
