š° News we're reading
ā¢ Falls Lake rises another 1% as recent rainfall boosts water levels (wral.com) ā Wendell residents who get water from Raleigh Water remain under Stage 1 restrictions even as Falls Lake has inched up to 66% full after recent rain. The lake is still more than five feet below its target level, so irrigation days and hours are limited and repeat violators can be fined. Neighbors can also report clear violations to Raleigh Water.
