Idaho remains in a drought, despite all the wet, cold weather this spring.

So, we’re taking a look at our water supply, how recent storms have made a difference in drought conditions and whether we’ll have enough water to get through the summer.

Joining Idaho Matters to answer all of our water-related questions is Erin Whorton, a water supply specialist with the National Resources Conservation ServiceIdaho Snow Survey.

As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life!). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
