And they’ll still be whining about a drought come August, despite record snow pack. That’s what happens when you build no new reservoirs despite massive population increase. But basic infrastructure isn’t sexy.

Yosemite will be spectacular this summer, snow melt will keep the waterfalls going full blast into August. Unfortunately, there will be more selfie deaths from people not paying attention to the warning signs to not leave the trails.

Even at ankle depth, those rushing waters are dangerous as hell.

That's right. The Drought Monitor https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu is showing drought in SoCal where there is no drought. The explanation is that a couple of reservoirs are low. Not too many years ago the Drought Monitor was an objective website. Now it is politiciized.

Every time we have a heavy rain year, the teeth start gnashing about the huge “fuel load” that will be starting to grow soon and a huge new fire season starting up.

Count on it.
