The Southwest Florida Water Management District has declared a Modified Phase II ‘Severe’ Water Shortage due to persistent dry conditions, imposing one-day-per-week outdoor watering restrictions across 15 counties and specific areas in Florida. Residents must adhere to strict schedules based on their address numbers, with additional limitations on car washing, pressure washing, and aesthetic fountains. The order aims to conserve water amid a 13-inch regional rainfall deficit and declining water levels in key resources.
