I find it surprising that our water restrictions here in the metro Atlanta region are still in place even though we've had above average rainfall for a year and a half now.

Matter of fact, we surpassed the record rainfall amount for May and suffered through some flooding. The Chattahoochie and all it's tributaries are high. Yet the draconian watering restrictions are still in place.

We went thru the same thing up here in the northeast. Personally I don't believe i droughts. It will rain again, the water isn't going away.

Atlanta area water restrictions depend on the county. Gwinnett was one of the last to impose restrictions when the drought began and we are no longer under restrictions. (But the high amount of rainfall means that most of us aren't watering anyway).
