This was caused by Global Warming. We’re all going to die.

Anyone up for a hike? In a field of poppies?
No thanks, one might lose their ruby slippers...

“Is it illegal to pick California golden poppies?” Turns out this myth is sort of true because it’s illegal to pick any plant found in state and federal parks. If you pick one, you could be prosecuted for a misdemeanor crime punishable with a fine up to $1,000, and even 6 months in jail.

Lake Elsinore Mayor said during a news conference earlier this month. "Numerous problems occurred on our trails and roads. There were Disneyland-size crowds wanting to see the poppies." Charge them admission, only allow groups of 12 at a time, or just make it off limits. Raise taxes to pay for all the damage to the dirt!

I thought young people don’t like to “touch grass” anymore?

Not quite like this year. I’ve seen the blooms every spring. Most are fairly muted in their scope.
This year, due to the constant rains over the last 3 months, the blooms are significant and spectacular.
We had next to no flowers out back of where I work last year. This year, it’s covered from end to end with flowers, white and yellow.

From the title I thought this thread was going to be about Algae.

I watch an off-road youtuber in Utah that has been there his entire life. The Joshua Trees had big white blooms on them - first time he has ever seen them bloom in 30+ years (so much rain this year).
