HOW WILL THE AQUIFER BENEFIT?

In addition to Monday evening's rain, we also saw some large rainfall events on Saturday, November 2nd along the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone, increasing San Antonio's main water source. Unfortunately, with the aquifer still more than 30 feet below average, it will take a lot more rain to bring the aquifer back to healthy levels. Still, look at how much rain has fallen along the charging zone since Saturday – impressive! READ MORE: How does the Edwards Aquifer work and why is it so heavily regulated? KSAT explains
