San Diego County has enough water to meet the region’s needs for 2024 and the foreseeable future thanks to wet winters and local conservation, the San Diego County Water Authority announced April 2.

As of early March, the county had already exceeded its annual rainfall average since the water year began Oct. 1, according to the National Weather Service.
