BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- KTVZ’s Tracee Tuesday spoke with Deschutes County Water Master Jeremy Giffin for a timely update on Central Oregon’s water conditions, following weeks of recent rain and late-season snow.

Giffin addresses whether the moisture received over the past month and a half is enough to make a meaningful impact on already strained water levels—and what it could mean for the months ahead. As the region heads into summer and looks toward fall and winter, questions remain about long-term water supply and drought conditions.
