‘Climate science’ is the ‘gender studies’ of the science world.

Imagine, a pipeline that could connect all the major reservoirs together.
They'd be able to fill up Lake Mead right now.
Or they could divert to other, less full reservoirs.
Instead they are building a high speed rail line from SF to LA, that has already doubled original cost estimates.
Currently, the HS train is at $68 billion.
The original Keystone pipeline cost $5.2 billion. The new expansion will be an additional $7 billion.
When completed, will be able to move 1.1 million barrels a day.

I’ve been searching to learn how Lake Mead has benefited from the rains. Does anyone know ?

I remember being stationed in California during the 1982-83 period. It rained constantly that winter. I was wondering why Southern California had a reputation for sunny and dry weather all the time.

It was a welcome relief from a previous drought

The government of CA had one job during this epic period of wetness -— store as much water as possible —— and they failed.

That’s the most wonderful thing about man made global warming, it’s effects are constantly changing so as to always support the lunacies of the Gaia worshippers and environmental elitists.

Climate change causes droughts. It causes rain also in the same place. It causes Islamic terrorism.
Climate change is god.

We have had 41" of rain with normal being 28" behind the Redwood curtain and 99% goes out to sea. This could be a record wet year for this area. I love the irony of this graphic...
