The drought was reduced with the En Nino (2015-16) and wiped out in the record 2016-17 season. That rain and snow was the main reason for the fires later in 2017 and 2018, not drought.

Yes, but Gov. Nuisance probably won’t admit it.
They seem to like keeping tight controls over resources.
“Saving us from ourselves”, I suppose, and our habits of using too much water by Govt. standards.

“Is California’s Drought over ?”

Most of if not all of our lakes which supply our water in Northern California are full and running over the spillways.

Most if not all of the local news wipes have hidden this reality from their readers or tv audiences.

One has to realize that the Marxist Governor of CA, Heir Newsom, and his band of corrupt vermin, will forever declare the state is in a drought. They prefer to tax the hell out of everyone on their water bills as well as restrict when and how we use water.

It’s all about power and corruption in CA.

No. Sacramento will continue dumping the surplus fresh drinking water into the ocean in order to sustain the blue unicorn. Or, is it the rainbow water nymph? Or the snail darter?

Anyway, rest assured, kommiefornia's totalitarian state will find a way to push their dishonest agenda.

They try not to address that. It gives them less power to hang over the head of California citizens.

We’ve gotten a lot of rain over the last two months, down here in Southern California, which generally means they got a whole bunch of snow up North.

I’ll give you some figures from Mammoth Mountain.

Season total of snow: 359” at the lodge, 543” at the summet

This storm: 57-97”

72 hour snowfall: 24 hours 6”, 48 hours 22”, 72 hours 45”

That’s a whole lot of water.

The drought is over.

Nah. When it melts it’ll be dumped into the pacific. Our side, awesome as it will top off Lake Tahoe very nicely.

We’re never in a drought we have a water storage issue
