MORDEN --
The taps in the City of Morden could run dry if the area doesn’t get some rain or snow in the coming months, according to the community’s mayor.
Brandon Burley said the lake the community gets drinking water from is dropping so fast, it’s putting the water supply in jeopardy.
It comes amid a devastating drought that’s taken hold across southern Manitoba.
The city tightened rules around water usage back in May—people can’t water their lawns, fill their pools, wash their cars at home and Morden’s spray pad is closed—but the level on the lake is still in a sharp decline.
