Show Notes
Despite winters heavy snowfall, New England faces critical drought due to two years of dry conditions. Boston area and central Massachusetts are most affected, with water tables six inches to one and a half feet below average. While no immediate disruptions are expected, towns like Worcester, Cambridge, and Hopkinton have imposed outdoor water use restrictions.
