Our drought continues. Nothing new about that. We have addressed the issues associated with the continuing drought in the pages of The Black Range Naturalist on several occasions. But when our “normal” water is so little, less than little can be catastrophic.
The flow in the Rio Grande is about normal for this time of year, because it is a dam controlled water feature. The photos below were taken at Percha Dam in late November, they show what our normal is at this time of year. The first image is taken looking up river through the gates of Percha Dam.
