Update: How the Recent Storms Impacted San Diego’s Water Supply in Reservoirs
With recent storm systems that swept through the west, California has seen more precipitation this year than normal, bringing the water supply stored in reservoirs — both locally and across the state — up from historic lows to levels that are some of the highest in years.
