No it’s not. The Aquifers are drying up and are not being replenished. California is using 8.3 Billion Gallons of Groundwater a day and the those aquifers cannot ever regain.
Farmers in the Central Valley and others places and have a year maybe two before those resources dry up and it’s gone.

There are few options and Brown and others should have been planning for the water future of California 50 Years ago and didn’t.

Everyone was screaming with their hair on fire about a global warming 100 years from now and nobody paid attention to this?

Figures. What could they possibly hope to refill these aquifers with? Surely not ocean water....

Is there anything even heroic that could be done... like shipping trainloads of snow down from the north next winter?

I always say that people don't take droughts seriously until they open a tap in their house and nothing comes out. Then it's game on!
