Drought Endangers Florida Everglades in 50 Year Crisis
A South Florida water crisis threatens the Everglades as drought shrinks lakes and canals. Officials warn only 50 year cycles produce such conditions. Lake Okeechobee runs 2 feet below normal while rainfall on the lower east coast trails 36 inches behind. The region’s vast water management system and planned engineering projects face tests to restore balance before wildlife and 4 million residents suffer.
