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.

Maybe it puts them on public record, taking a stand, a form of "witnessing" and gets Extra Credit...?

Prayer does not inform God of anything, but it does serve to remind us of our dependence on Him.

The correlation between a public call to prayer and these results serves to demonstrate to society that God is real and in control.
