Living in both Northern and Southern Idaho all my life, it is sad to think how unaware I was of Idaho's remarkable land and history. "Idaho" by A.B. Guthrie opened my eyes and excellently portrayed Idaho as a beautiful and special place. In the beginning, Guthrie introduced the diverse landscapes that Idaho has to offer.

Drought is a normal recurring feature of climate, not a rare or random event. Climate influence water quality throughout temperature, precipitation, and wind by affecting the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of water. For instance, temperature fluctuation results in more stress on aquatic organism within water body, in the same way wind fluctuation has a direct effect on evaporation rate. Municipal water providers in Flagstaff, Williams, Mayer, Pine, Strawberry, and in areas near Sierra Vista, Sonoita, and Picacho have suffered from some potable
Because the country is located directly in the path of the hurricane belt, winds and rain are stronger, bringing cooler temperatures and causing rainfall that varies from year to year with 53 inches in the east regions, 82 inches in the northeast, and 17 inches in the west.
