The city of McAllen announced some water restrictions were lifted for residents and businesses.
Stage 2 water restrictions, which limited sprinkler system irrigation to two days a week during specific hours, are no longer in effect, the city announced Thursday.
The restrictions were triggered when the water supply from Amistad and Falcon Dam reached less than 25% capacity.
According to the news release, recent rains and the lower temperatures reduced the demand for water.
The community is still encouraged to conserve water.
