New York City will receive some rain starting Wednesday night, which should ease the dry conditions that led to a drought warning but won't fully replenish reservoirs.
The National Weather Service announced that the expected rainfall will assist with the ongoing fire weather issues, but it won’t be enough to solve the drought crisis.
With the city’s reservoirs currently at 60% capacity, this rainfall marks a partial respite amidst severe drought conditions that have persisted for weeks.
New York City has been battling one of its worst droughts in decades, prompting Mayor Eric Adams to advise residents to conserve water ahead of mandatory restrictions.
