The existing drought and current heat wave sweeping the state has forced another city to enact a ban on all outdoor water use. Winder in northeast Georgia has announced the move. A city official says Winder's main source of water--the Mulberry River--has "gotten down to a trickle".
The city is considering buying about 5-million gallons of water per day from the Bear Creek Reservoir.
Many cities and counties across the state have either complete or very restrictive water bans in place.
