That would be a great thing. Refill the lakes and maybe let up the pressure on draining the aquifers. I remember a few years back they said we may never get out of our drought and then the next year we had record rainfall and every lake was above flood level and had flood gates open. This year has been dry and we are back into a drought. We have had several wet years in and several dry years over the last decade.
I am always astonished when I think that the politicians actually thought ahead and had a lot of man made lakes built, and OKC has the water rights to several more lakes. The vast majority of out drinking water is rain run off. We have very highly rated water system.
