The

of
our

is
to

decreases.

Today,
the
volume
of
all
of

combined
is
only
fifty
two
percent
of
what
it's
supposed
to
be
so
outdoor

day.
The

level
will
change
at
fifty
percent
2
2day
a

Outdoor
watering
postcards
and
other
informative
items
are
ready

we
drop
below
50
percent,

as
they
normally
do.
