Dry weather, above normal temperatures expected through June with persistent drought conditions

While the Front Range was blessed with much needed snow in March, the state s snowpack has not climbed back up to average on the Western Slope and drought conditions are likely to persist. As a result of those forecasts, Colorado Springs Utilities expects to rely heavily on its reservoirs this summer, said Patrick Wells, general manager of water resources and demand management for the utility. But water restrictions aren t expected beyond its permanent Water-wise Rules that limit outdoor irrigation to three days a week, he said Thursday. The rules also prohibit outdoor watering from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. from May 1 to Oct. 15.
