No parts of Utah are listed in severe drought for the first time in more than three years; however, state water officials are still calling on residents to use water efficiently.
SALT LAKE CITY — No parts of Utah are listed in severe drought for the first time in more than three years. However, state water officials are still calling on residents to use water efficiently as the summer nears.
The current drought cycle began at the end of the summer of 2019, after what was another really good year for water. Nearly 43% of Utah had fallen into severe drought by the end of November that year before an average snow collection season fell over the ensuing winter, dropping the percentage back down to less than 2% by the spring of 2020.
Meanwhile, the drought update comes as temperatures are finally warming up to a point where the irrigation season is ready to begin in earnest. And the Utah Division of Water Resources has a new tool aimed at helping residents be more efficient with how they water their lawns.
