Mega-drought? Heck, why not Giga-drought? Tera-drought. Uber-drought!
Maxi drought. Unprecedented! Never since “records” started being kept. Anything that happened before records (NOT 33/45/78) doesn’t count. Apparently. Although, a couple weeks ago on a side trip from Elko back to Reno we stopped at a rest area and you could hear the crickets crunching as we pulled in. Yikes. Reminded me of crawfish migrating across I-10 just east of New Orleans. Just not as tasty. :-}
