“Unfortunately for those concerned about California’s recent drought, the water that is being released from the Anderson Reservoir is not being collected. ‘It’s not water we can use,’ Grimes said last week. “There are just the physical realities. Unfortunately, we can’t keep the reservoir full.”

So, G-d FINALLY gives them the water they so desperately need...and they p*ss it all away?

(I lived in San Diego from ‘80-’82, a previous period of drought.)

Amazing, isn’t it ? Droughts are nothing new in CA and yet we keep spending money on educating illegals and handing out welfare instead of building a real state-wide water network. Mono Lake is still basically empty after Los Angeles used it all up decades ago. Other lakes and reservoirs in San Luis Obisbo County and Kern County and Imperial County remain very low because there is no waterway to make use of all this NorCal excess.

It just kills me how dry the western states are when we have rivers flowing out to sea and throwing away desperately needed fresh water. Damming the Mississippi would green Texas and New Mexico. Damming the Columbia and Sacramento rivers would green California. If we built canals to move water where we need it.

They’ve known about the seismic issues for 17 years and they have nothing about it.

It’s a scientific fact that every time California elects Jerry Brown they have a drought.
