Carefully developed plans for days spent in the great outdoors can be derailed by unexpected rainstorms, while sudden bursts of sun- shine can turn overcast after- noons into chances to get out- side and breathe some fresh air. Lawn and garden enthusi- asts know just how mercu- rial Mother Nature can be, especially during summer. The specter of drought looms ev- ery summer, but the National Weather Service's Climate Prediction Center does not an- ticipate any broad-scale areas of drought developing in the Lower 48 states in 2020. While that's good news for lawn and garden enthusiasts, it's wise to remain prepared for drought. In recognition of the dif- fi culties drought can pose, the Environmental Protection Agency offers the following tips to homeowners to ensure that water is available to meet critical needs. • Learn local regulations. During dry periods and droughts, local water utilities put restrictions in place. These restrictions are not meant to be nuisances, but designed to ensure water is available to fi ght fi res and meet other criti- cal needs. Adhering to these guidelines, no matter how dif- fi cult they can be, helps your community stay safe. Periodi- cally visit local water utilities' websites to learn if there are any restrictions in place. • Inspect fi xtures for leaks. Conservation is the goal of water restrictions. Leaky fi x- tures compromise conserva- tion efforts, so inspect all in- terior and exterior faucets and pipes for leaks and fi x them immediately. • Look into upgrades. Up- grading outdated bathrooms and other water features can be a great way to conserve water without changing daily habits. For example, the EPA estimates that water-conserv- ing toilets can reduce water consumption by as much as 60 percent each year. That saves consumers money while also helping them to conserve during droughts or periods of dryness. • Water wisely. The EPA notes that experts estimate that as much as 50 percent of the water we use outdoors is lost to evaporation, wind or runoff due to overwatering. The EPA recommends wa- tering primarily in the early morning and evening, after the sun goes down, so less water is lost to evaporation. If you have an irrigation system that uses a clock timer, con- sider replacing the timer with a WaterSense labeled irriga- tion controller, which acts like a thermostat for a sprinkler system, using local weather and landscape conditions to tell the sprinkler system when to turn itself on and off. Drought and dry conditions in summer highlight the impor- tance of conserving water. Conserving water during drought and dry periods
