SAN JOSE — While the showers that started falling Sunday night were welcome in the Bay Area, experts say the small amount of precipitation won’t have much impact on the local water supply.
There was just enough runoff from the overnight storm to bring the babble back to Penitencia Creek in San Jose’s Alum Rock Park. ”Everything looks really green. I haven’t watered my grass. I haven’t been watering, so that helped,” said Robert Urbano, who liked what the rain did to the park and his yard at home.“This was not a miracle. We never complain about getting any rain any time of the year, but this was such a small drop in the bucket,” said Santa Clara Valley Water District spokesman Matt Keller.
Conservation will be the key to making it through another mostly dry year. On Monday, Gov. Gavin Newsom“While we have made historic investments to protect our communities, economy and ecosystems from the worsening drought across the West, it is clear we need to do more,” Newsom said Monday., Newsom called for local water suppliers to move to Level 2 of their water shortage contingency plans.
