Okanagan braces for severe drought
Description
June 8, 2021
Water providers and managers in the Okanagan are bracing for what could be a severe drought this summer. With the driest spring on record so far in many parts of the valley--there are fears water may be in short supply over the next few months. As Klaudia Van Emmerik reports, residents are being urged to conserve water especially with their outdoor use of the resource.
