In the past, droughts were measured in months and years, today, they're measured in days and weeks.

Even in the Bible there were "seven lean years".

I declare a drought when I step on my lawn and it goes "crunch!" and that may have only been a week without rain.

I lived 28 years in California where we just painted the lawn and jumped in the pool.
