Russian River Valley? Not so much.

True that.

On the other hand if they had built that infrastructure we wouldn't have the Salton Sea to enjoy.

“Drought” is just a social construct. If California self-identified as a water surplus state, its problems would be solved. You would think the CaliLibs would have figured this out by now, as it is a hermeneutic that they apply to all other problems.

“You wouldn’t have to move the water to California...you would only need to get it as far as tributaries to the Colorado.”

That could be an option, but I was just thinking that the Continental Divide in CO runs at 10,000 feet or higher, while the divide is much lower further south.

They are measuring this snow in feet rather than inches.

Oh yes it does; the environazis have just decided to turn off the pumps, so they could save a non-indigenous fish in the Sacramento delta.

One other item; if we built more water storage infrastructure we would have to deprive Governor Moonbeam of his high speed Choo Choo to nowhere.
Can’t have that now, can we.

The Klamath river here in the real northern California dumps enough run off to flood most of the state and yet there is talks to remove the 4 dams that are on it now.
