A prolonged drought has depleted lakes and forced water rationing on nearly half of Puerto Rico residents, who are counting on dredging and divine intervention to replenish the island's reservoirs.

The five-month drought proved dangerous Friday when low water pressure hampered efforts to control a fire in San Juan. The blaze destroyed four homes and injured two firefighters.

Governor Alejandro Garcia Padilla declared a state of emergency. As a result, officials have imposed strict water rationing which further makes it very challenging to get some water to drink, not to mention taking daily showers, washing cars, etc. These are luxuries!

Millions of Puerto Ricans are hoping on divine intervention. Cardinal Luis Aponte Martinez has urged all Roman Catholics to pray for rain. About 100 members of the Stella Maris Church led a traditional prayer procession Thursday through the streets of an upscale tourist section of San Juan in which they called for rain.

Certainly, these are terrible days for Puerto Rico sad
