January Rain in Ohio Seen as Help for July Water
Ohio officials say January rain improves underground water supplies for farms and industries, with high water tables expected by July. Ralph J. Bernhagen notes winter rainfall soaking unfrozen ground boosts reserves, aiding flood protection and industrial use while cities add about 135 million gallons daily. The Dayton area leads in well water use, followed by Stark, Butler, Hamilton, and Cincinnati Mill Creek Valley, with Columbus Akron and Chillicothe also significant users. Rain has value and a reason to smile when umbrellas reappear.
