Yep -- the water shortage for agriculture is purely man-made in terms of irrigation.

But what I'm seeing in California this year is different than I have ever seen in my lifetime, and I've lived here more than half a century (I've been five years old more than 11 times, if that tells you anything! ;^).

This is the first time in my lifetime, and as well in my mom's lifetime, and she's been here for 85 years, that we haven't seen green hills this time of year.

Spooky.

But it's not the first time it's been this dry, and it won't be the last.

Yeah, I’m stationed at Travis AFB. Been here since 2010. Really weird this year...
