Thanks for the info. Seems reasonable.
Unfortunately, now that everybody is out of water and the drivers have been working past midnight for so long nobody who needs it can get water delivered unless they know somebody. Apparently there is "a guy" who will do it for an hourly rate.
I bought 1000' of 1/2" irrigation tubing so I can get water from our doomsday tank at the back of the property without having to haul it. Fortunately, it's uphill. I'll tell my grandkids it was uphill both ways.
Edited to add: In past "mega droughts", has the county ever done anything to assuage the water distribution problem? I noticed the lines at the spigots are getting long, with many people hogging them with IBC totes, etc. Functional governments normally do things like parking water trucks at various locations, etc
