Washington has experienced increasing drought conditions in recent years due to limited water supplies. These conditions are driven by factors like low rainfall, dry soils, changing weather patterns, and warmer winters that bring rain instead of snow. With less snowpack to feed rivers and lakes, these water shortages can directly impact many users in our state—especially farmers.
By developing thoughtful drought strategies and finding ways to make the most of our water resources, together we can help support our agricultural communities.
