After 60+ days of 100+ degree temperatures, the Cities of Fort Worth and Arlington have finally implemented lawn watering restrictions. This is considered Stage 1 restrictions. There are several restrictions including watering only 2 days a week, restrictions on watering days based on even or odd number street address, and also there is no watering at all on Monday. We all knew this would be coming since it has been so ridiculously hot for so long now, but it’s just amazing that it is coming so late in the summer.
Luckily, the weather forecast is calling for sub 100 degree temps starting late this week. There is even some doubt as to whether or not we will break the all time amount of 100+ days in one year. In 1980 we had 69 days over 100. I believe we were at 62 after yesterday. At this point, it doesn’t really matter if it’s 98, 99, or 101…we might as well break the record since we’ve had to endure this ridiculous heat for so long now.
