Breaking: Climate Change leads to massive flooding in California. Could be underwater in 2-3 years. Lake Tahoe experiencing record high water levels. Communities living in fear.

the CA drought has been a multi-year event (5 years i think). The article is about the drought ending in N. CA a year after the NYT said that it was going to keep going
60% of the state is still under drought conditions

The sad thing for the GD "death to America crowd" is that the northern mountains that are the watershed for California have received record rains, more rain than any year since 1922. There are areas with 20 and 30 feet of snow in the snowpack.
Locally I have recorded over 5.25 inches of rain towards a normal average of 7.5 inches and the wettest part of the season is still to come. It could be we're not going to die after all.

The drought covered the entire Southwest including Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and even (God Bless) Texas five years ago - recall that beef prices doubled in 2012/2013?
The drought pulled back from Texas, then New Mexico, Utah, Arizona and Nevada and finally California. Climatologist, who I don't trust farther than I can throw their body pieces, claim the drought was a one in a five hundred year one. The drought ending was a good thing because tens of thousands of liberals were fleeing the state daily due to thirst looking for water.

And the cited source is just plain dumb and doesn't understand. over 1/3 of California's water is stored in snow pack. If it rains and melts the snow too soon, you'll still have a drought come summertime. Too much rain too soon contributes nothing or close to nothing as it runs off. |

Have you EVER discussed weather with a Wisconsin farmer? NO Midwestern farmers are ever happy with the weather. It's part of their nature and I'm pretty sure a requirement for being a farmer in the first place. |
