When APC requested the variance last year, the National Weather Service was predicting the 2007 drought to continue into the winter and spring of 2008. I think that was the big factor in their decision to request the variance. Fortunately, the forecast was wrong, and we had about average rainfall early this year.

Interesting Note: People here refer to Lake Lanier often, but the lakes on the Savannah River (between Georgia and South Carolina) are hurting pretty bad too. Geographically, they are in the worst part of the U.S. drought monitor because the Appalachian Mountains take most of the moisture from westerly weather systems. Lakes Hartwell and Thurmond are almost at the lowest the dams can go... In other words, they are close to be free-flowing rivers.
