not only in California but Texas and other parts of the country as well - it's been weird for sure. A few years ago i posted photos of Lake Travis in Austin, Texas and how low the water had got. That's about the time Texas also lost 10% of all it's trees due to the dry conditions. Today Austin is in flooding mode and Lake Travis in the last two days has risen by 6" from the rainfall. Go figure! But as far as this having to go to PWEC ...idk.... droughts come and go and may be a combination of longer term weather patterns plus water usage from growing populations of towns/cities and nothing more then that.

A lot of this is a function of how very, very much above its carrying capacity the State of California is. And that's all I'm going to say about that.

Oh for Pete's sake. Somebody flushed, that's all. The level will come right back up.
