Sydney Faces Severe Drought as Rainfall Lags

Sydney reports extremely dry weather with only one point of rain this month and 10 inches for the year, far below the 28 inch January to May average. The Weather Bureau notes the driest period since 1942, with April to June typically wet. Water restrictions may begin if conditions persist, as daily city consumption nears 241 million gallons after eight days above 200 million. Sydney Water Board urges residents to conserve water.
