Water releases planned as drought conditions continue in metro Atlanta

Colder temperatures are here in Georgia, and while many might welcome the change from steamy summer days to chilly winter mornings, what the Southeast really needs is rain. The state of Georgia has been under drought conditions this year, despite some smaller periods of heavy rainfall, and it has caused the water levels in the state's reservoirs to drop significantly. Atlanta has received 35.3 inches of rain so far this year, down significantly from the 30-year average, according to the National Weather Service. The Georgia Environmental Protection Division declared a statewide drought response level 1 in April, meaning utilities were required to warn residents about the impacts of drought and ways to mitigate them. Now, state officials are taking the next step to keep Atlanta's water system moving.

Lake Lanier Sinks to Lowest Level in Nearly a Decade, Boat Ramps Shut Down

Lake Lanier has dropped to its lowest water level in nearly a decade, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says it has no choice but to keep releasing water through Buford Dam even as the lake gets almost no rain to refill it. Atlanta relies on Lake Lanier for drinking water, and with the region stuck in drought, officials have already begun shutting down boat ramps and warning paddlers and boaters to watch for hazards that are normally hidden underwater.
