Rain Leads to Needed Runoff into Hulah Lake
Tom Davis
Some much needed rain fell in our area on Friday morning, but not enough to end any water restrictions in Bartlesville.
A little more than two inches of rain fell Friday morning.Terry Lauritsen/Bartlesville City Water Utilities Director tells Bartlesville Radio,“The rain we’ve received has helped. It has generated the most runoff of any rain we’ve received this year. Exactly how much it will help our situation isn’t immediately known, however, because as of 9:45 a.m. inflow was still coming into the lakes. It will take a few hours for that water to get to the lakes before we can give an accurate water supply percentage.”
