Where can one find information about the multi-year drought affecting Colorados weather and water availability?
A. A multi-year drought cycle occurs about every twenty years in Colorado. During the last several years, the western states have been experiencing snow pack and precipitation. Everyone can contribute to water conservation by reducing personal water use at home and on landscapes. During drought conditions everyone has an increased responsibility to use water appropriately. For more information on drought, weather and resources on water conservation, animal care, gardening, turf management and other drought-related conditions, see the Web site, Drought-ColoState and the Colorado Climate Center Drought Resources.
