Answer 1

I live in Las Vegas. We are in a 10-12 year drought, but it looks like all this Colorado Snow we are getting may fix things for us. The snow pack in the Rockies is what we need to fill up the Colorado River and Lake Mead, the main source of our water....

I have not heard anything about New Mexico. I hope you get some good answers to your question, as it is really an important issue......sounds like you will make a wise and informed desicion.
