That seems like a fairly minimal excess, and, we're had a couple serious storms, havent those helped top up ye' ol' reservoirs?
Just spray that flex-seal that Billy Mays was hocking patch 'er up and call 'er a day! Enough is enough!

So trying to figure out how big our reservoir system is. I found this comment in June
Quote:
Mackay said the city is now relying on one plant to produce water. The plant can produce 520 million litres of water a day, she said, but Friday’s demand was about 610 million litres.
Normally, the city stores up to two days’ worth of water in its reservoir system. She said everyone needs to do their part to ensure the demand does not exceed the supply.

So two days of supply would be somewhere between 1 and 1.4 billion litres.
