Even with the chance of a wetter-than-average fall and winter, conservation is still key. That’s where WaterSaver Coupons come in!
There’s been a lot of buzz lately about a stronger‑than‑usual El Niño this fall and winter. But what does that mean for our city?
El Niño happens when the Pacific Ocean is warmer than normal. For Texas, that often brings wetter-than-average fall and winter weather — and a strong or “super” El Niño could increase our chances of getting even more rain.
If you have an irrigation system, fall is a great time to adjust the controller settings for year-round savings.
Still, one rainy season won’t erase seven years of drought. Aquifers recharge slowly, and once the wet phase fades, spring and summer can become drier than normal.
No matter what El Niño brings, water conservation is still key. SAWS WaterSaver Coupons make it easy to get ahead of the weather and prepare your landscape accordingly. A WaterSaver landscape is hardy — and beautiful — whatever the weather! Get all the details and apply online now!
Remember: drought stage rules are still in place. That means watering with a sprinkler or in-ground irrigation is only allowed between 5-10 a.m. and 9 p.m.-midnight, one day a week on your day.
As always, you can water with a handheld hose any time.
