I suppose Las Vegas could be evacuated the same as cities are evacuated during hurricanes, eh?

[...] and parts of the Southwest are “exceptionally dry,” the worst category [...]

The good news: It can't get any worse!

“it’s really quite extreme drought conditions.”

Reject. I am not buying it. The threat of drought has been broadcast just as much as the silly threats of global warming and killer bees. California had tons of rain to wipe out the drought for a long time in 2017. Meade gets tons of water from Utah, Idaho and Montana.

CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, etc.: “Lake Mead lowest in history!!!” Reject.

>> Lake Mead and supplies water to 25 million people, including in the cities of ... Los Angeles, and San Diego.

The water is piped along the desert to the West Coast?

Looks like all the people fleeing the Northeast to the Southwest will be flocking back this way.

We've got more water here than we can handle. After the heavy rains of Memorial Day weekend, all the creeks around here are full to the brim.

I had hoped an earthquake would destroy the California city states. Looks like no water will be the angel of destruction

It looks like an open border is the cause of the drought

The focus seems to be on climate and drought conditions. I would like to see a graph of the amount of water drawn from Lake Mead over the years (e.g., monthly/annual rate) and the number of people serviced by the water from the lake over time.

Bet some are wishing they had built those two other proposed dams on the Colorado back in the 1960s.
