Water Restrictions by City – 2026

Published: Updated:

⚠ Active restrictions in Florida (Phase III Extreme), Colorado (Stage 1 + Erie Level 4 Emergency), North Carolina (Stage 2 Charlotte in effect since May 15, Stage 1 Raleigh), and drought warnings across VA, TN, GA, AL — updated May 3, 2026

Watering schedules, fines, and enforcement details are current as of May 3, 2026. Check your city below for your specific watering day and allowed hours.

Spring 2026 has brought the most widespread US drought in over a decade, with major escalations continuing into May. Charlotte enters Stage 2 mandatory restrictions on May 15 — the first mandatory restrictions in the Charlotte region since 2007 and the first ‘exceptional drought’ classification since 2008. Metro Vancouver made an unprecedented direct jump to Stage 2 on May 1, skipping Stage 1 entirely and banning all lawn watering across the Lower Mainland. Boise, ID activated Stage 2 in late April — the earliest on record. The entire Southeast — including 100% of North Carolina, 99.95% of Virginia, 98.13% of Georgia, and 93.65% of Tennessee — remains in drought, the driest recharge season since records began in 1895. Colorado is experiencing its worst snowpack since 1941. Florida’s Southwest Water Management District remains at Modified Phase III Extreme across 11 counties. This page is updated as new city-level restrictions are announced — check back frequently.

Drought Watch — No Mandatory Restrictions (Yet)

These states and cities are in active drought but have not imposed mandatory outdoor watering restrictions as of April 19, 2026. Voluntary conservation is requested across all listed areas. Conditions could escalate to mandatory restrictions through late spring and summer 2026 as growing-season demand peaks.

Virginia

Drought Watch

Virginia is experiencing its second-driest recharge season since records began in 1895, with 99.95% of the state in drought as of April 2026. Mandatory restrictions have not yet been implemented, but voluntary conservation is strongly encouraged statewide. Restrictions could be triggered by late spring conditions — check your local utility for updates.

Tennessee

Drought Watch

Tennessee is experiencing its ninth-driest recharge season since records began in 1895, with 93.65% of the state in drought as of April 2026. Most Tennessee utilities have not yet imposed mandatory restrictions but are monitoring conditions closely as the spring growing season increases water demand.

Alabama

Drought Watch

Alabama is in a Drought Watch following the second-driest recharge season on record. North Alabama and Birmingham metro are most affected; Gulf Coast areas (Mobile) have seen more normal rainfall and remain unrestricted.

  • Birmingham: Drought Watch — Jefferson County water monitoring
  • Huntsville: Drought Watch — Huntsville Utilities
  • Mobile: No restrictions — Gulf Coast rainfall closer to seasonal norms

North Carolina (additional cities beyond Charlotte/Raleigh)

Drought Watch

100% of North Carolina is in drought as of April 2026 — the driest recharge season since records began in 1895. Charlotte and Raleigh are under mandatory restrictions (see active restrictions section above). The cities below are on Drought Watch with voluntary conservation requested.

  • Durham: Drought Watch — reservoirs at 84% (Lake Michie, Little River). Falls Lake approaching the 85% mandatory-restriction trigger.
  • Greensboro: Drought Watch — monitor ncdrought.org for updates

What Do Water Restrictions Mean for Your Lawn?

Water restrictions limit when and how often you can run your sprinkler system, but they do not mean your lawn is doomed. Most warm-season grasses grown in Florida – including St. Augustine, Bahia, and Bermuda – can survive four to six weeks without irrigation by entering a natural dormancy state. The grass blades turn brown, but the root system and crown remain alive underground. Once summer rains arrive or restrictions are eased, the lawn greens up within one to two weeks.

Cool-season grasses in Colorado, such as Kentucky Bluegrass and tall fescue, are more vulnerable to summer heat stress, but the two-day-per-week schedule under Stage 1 restrictions is usually sufficient to keep them alive if you water deeply during allowed hours. Mowing high (3.5–4 inches) and avoiding fertilizer during restrictions are the two most important survival steps.

Hand watering with a hose and shut-off nozzle is still permitted in nearly all jurisdictions, even on non-scheduled days. Drip irrigation for garden beds and container plants is also exempt from day-of-week limits in most districts. Focus your limited water on trees, shrubs, and high-value plantings first – turf is the most resilient part of your landscape and will recover on its own.

The biggest mistake homeowners make during restrictions is panic-fertilizing to try to keep the lawn green. Nitrogen forces new leaf growth that demands more water the lawn cannot receive, accelerating decline. Instead, let the grass rest. A dormant lawn is not a dead lawn. When the restrictions end and rain returns, your patience will be rewarded with a full recovery.

Find Your Watering Day

Most water restrictions assign your watering day based on the last digit of your street address. For example, if your address is 1234 Oak Lane, your last digit is “4” and you would water on the day assigned to addresses ending in 4 or 5 (Wednesday in SWFWMD areas).

Some districts use an even/odd system instead: even-numbered addresses water on one set of days, and odd-numbered addresses water on another. Pinellas County (St. Petersburg, Clearwater) and South Florida (SFWMD) use the even/odd system.

Multi-family properties, HOA common areas, and commercial properties often have separate schedules. In Denver Water’s system, multi-family and HOA common areas water on Tuesday and Friday regardless of address number.

Select your city from the list above to see the complete watering schedule, including your specific watering day based on your address, allowed hours, and what types of watering are exempt from the schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are water restrictions?
Water restrictions are mandatory limits on outdoor irrigation imposed by local water management districts during droughts or supply shortages. They specify which days you can water, during what hours, and for how long. Violations can result in warnings, fines, or having your water service flagged. Restrictions are enacted to protect drinking water supplies, prevent saltwater intrusion into aquifers, and ensure equitable distribution during shortages. They typically apply to automatic sprinkler systems, but hand watering and drip irrigation often have more flexible rules.
Can I hand water my lawn during restrictions?
Yes, in most cases. Both Florida’s SWFWMD and SFWMD districts and Colorado’s Denver Water allow hand watering with a hose and shut-off nozzle during designated hours, even on non-scheduled days. Hand watering is defined as holding the hose personally — unattended hoses or hose-end sprinklers left running are treated the same as automatic irrigation and must follow the day-of-week schedule. Check your specific city’s rules for allowed hand-watering hours.
Will my lawn die during water restrictions?
Most established lawns will survive water restrictions by going semi-dormant. Warm-season grasses like St. Augustine, Bahia, and Bermuda can handle 4–6 weeks without irrigation and will green up once rain returns. Cool-season grasses like Kentucky Bluegrass are less drought tolerant but can survive short restriction periods if mowed high and not fertilized. The key is to avoid stressing the lawn further: raise your mower blade, stop fertilizing, and focus any available water on trees and high-value shrubs rather than turf.
What are the fines for violating water restrictions?
Fines vary by jurisdiction. In Florida’s SWFWMD district, violations can result in fines up to $500, with enforcement citations beginning April 17, 2026. First offenses typically receive a written warning. In Colorado, Denver Water can impose fines of $50–$500 per occurrence per day for repeat violators. Some Florida municipalities may impose additional local fines of up to $5,000 per occurrence for repeat offenders. Enforcement is usually complaint-driven initially, then shifts to active patrols during severe phases.
How long do water restrictions last?
The duration depends on drought severity and rainfall recovery. Florida’s current SWFWMD Phase III restrictions are effective from April 3 through July 1, 2026, but may be extended if the summer wet season does not bring adequate rainfall. Colorado’s Denver Water Stage 1 restrictions run through October 1, 2026 with the possibility of extension; Erie’s Level 4 emergency continues until snowpack and reservoir conditions improve materially. North Carolina’s Stage 1 restrictions in Raleigh and Charlotte are reviewed weekly by the NC Drought Management Advisory Council and remain in effect until the state drought monitor downgrades the affected counties.
Which cities have new restrictions in May 2026?
Charlotte, NC escalated to mandatory Stage 2 restrictions in effect since May 15, 2026 — the first ‘exceptional drought’ classification in the Charlotte region since 2008. Metro Vancouver implemented an unprecedented direct escalation to Stage 2 on May 1, skipping Stage 1 entirely and banning all lawn watering across the Lower Mainland. Boise, ID activated Stage 2 restrictions in late April, the earliest on record due to Snake River flows 31% below average. Raleigh, NC moved to mandatory Stage 1 restrictions effective April 20, 2026 — odd addresses water Tuesdays midnight to 10 a.m., even addresses water Wednesdays midnight to 10 a.m. Erie, CO remains at Level 4 Emergency with all residential sprinkler systems prohibited. Valdosta, GA moved to mandatory 1-day-per-week restrictions on April 15, 2026. Drought watches are also active across Virginia, Tennessee, and Alabama with voluntary conservation requested.
Why is the 2026 Southeast drought so severe?
The Southeast US is experiencing its driest fall-through-spring recharge season since records began in 1895. 100% of North Carolina, 99.95% of Virginia, 98.13% of Georgia, and 93.65% of Tennessee are in drought as of April 2026. The dry recharge season meant winter rainfall did not replenish reservoirs and groundwater to normal levels, leaving the region with materially lower starting water supplies entering the high-demand spring and summer months. Combined with Colorado’s worst snowpack since 1941 and ongoing Florida and Western drought, the 2026 spring drought footprint is the most widespread in over a decade.
Can my HOA fine me for a brown lawn during water restrictions?
In Florida, Statute 720.3075 explicitly prohibits HOAs from fining homeowners for brown or dormant lawns during active water management district restrictions. Your HOA cannot require you to violate water restrictions to maintain green turf. In Colorado, HB 21-1229 goes further by prohibiting HOAs from requiring water-intensive landscaping like Kentucky Bluegrass or penalizing homeowners for xeriscaping or drought-tolerant alternatives. Keep a copy of your local restriction notice to show your HOA if you receive a violation letter.
