Do the farmers have containers to store the rain?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My recollection is that collection of rain without a government license is a crime, and a tyrannical organization called the EPA will assess very costly fines for doing so.

A lot of this rain will make its’ way into the groundwater...but see, we need a $100+ BILLION high speed rail system that almost no one in the state will use, while there have been no major improvements in water infrastructure in the state for decades....so alas, most of that rain will flow uselessly back out to sea.

Of course not. Storing the rainwater would offend the Delta Smelt, the fish that rules our lives.

The farmer’s have had all the water they needed thanks to the following (except under the recent generation of Marxists):
