South Florida water managers today voted to ease restrictions and allow twice-a-week yard watering starting April 18.

Two months of above normal rainfall and a wet start to April buoyed water supplies and prompted the district to stop the once-a-week watering limits, in place since Jan. 15.

Under the new restrictions, odd numbered addresses would be allowed to water on Wednesdays and Saturdays and even numbered addresses would water on Thursdays and Sundays. Watering would be allowed between 12 a.m. and 10 a.m. or between 4 p.m. and 11:59 p.m.
