Back in August, the city of Sedan announced it was facing a level 3 water emergency. They are still in the midst of an emergency as the water manager is calling it a 100-year event. The local car wash has closed down and the city pool was closed three weeks early. People have been asked not to use water for outdoor use. The reductions have worked as the city has cut water usage by over 25 percent. They did receive rain today, something that makes the Water District 20 manager James Rainbolt hopeful. “We’re still at stage 3. Hopefully the rain today, it’s not going to get us out of it, but it’ll slow the drop a little bit,” said Rainbolt.
