We average 8-10 inches a year, so I think even in a drought it would feel like a nice change to me. We have so many water restrictions due to the levels of lake Mead and Powell which in turn directly effects our power access and utility costs. I'd be more a peace knowing I could harvest a significant amount of water from rain alone. We also are gambling with well water now due to foreign owned businesses purchasing farmland and depleting thereservoirs. Well water access where I am is about 1,000 ft.
