The drought conditions have improved from Level 4 - Exceptional, but it's still at Level 2 - Severe, so Bakersfield's water restrictions will remain in place for the time being.
California has been swamped by storms over the past two weeks with more to come. Despite that, the City of Bakersfield and the California Water Service want to remind the public to conserve water.
The city's Streets Division says so far there have been no reports of major problems and their crews have been able to keep the curb drains clear and flowing.
