ATHENS - Not everyone is on board with Governor Perdue's plans to ease watering restrictions.

State assistant climatologists Pam Knox tells Georgia News Network the long-term state of the drought has really not changed a lot. Knox also says the "flip flop" is really what worries her because "people are not going to be able to understand the new rules."

Gov. Perdue said earlier this week limited outdoor watering will be allow, under certain conditions, and that the state will allow outdoor swimming pools to be filled and/or topped-off. (See separate stories).
