Start Date: 8/28/2025 -  
Some domestic wells were running dry in the Lolo Creek watershed. The mountain snowpack melted quickly, leaving little water to keep the stream flowing through the summer. Irrigators needed water for hay and livestock. Some people continued to water their dry lawns, drawing down the aquifer. Missoula Current (Mont.), Aug 28, 2025
