Metro Vancouver expects to move to Stage 3 water restrictions in June

The regional district says this year's snowpack is well below normal, and hasn't been this low since 2015 https://vancouversun.com/news/metro-vancouver-tage-3-water-restrictions-june-2026 

Two 3rds or even 75% of the year is overloaded with so much rain. Thus, its not a case of not enough rain in Vancouver, there just seems to be a lack of interest in creating more freshwater reservoirs.
