Delaware was in a drought watch after Gov. John Carney made the announcement on Oct. 25. Delawareans were urged to limit their outdoor water use as the state has not received significant rain in weeks. Residents and non-farm businesses were also asked to voluntarily curb non-essential water use. Fire danger remained a concern.
