Been above average rain where I live. Rivers have been too high and muddy to bass fish all year. Yep. We haven’t been able to fish our pond for the last 2 1/2 years, due to the water being up in the trees and brush. You simply can’t cast. Fish and other wildlife are thriving in there, big time.

if that's true why does it rain within 24 hrs. in EP every single time I wash my vehicle? Come to NorCal. We have car washes here too. Bring some of that "luck".

Just, STOP. We are talking about the west. WE GET IT. Plenty of you are getting rain, where you usually get rain, in the east. For fuggs sake. The conversation is about the serious issues in the western states.

Like I said, the exploration and settlement in the American West over the last century and a half have coincided with one of the wettest periods in the last several thousand years. This “drought” might be nothing more than getting back to “normal” for the region and if that is so, hard to see how current population levels there will be sustainable.

I didn't read the whole thread, but I suspect the title might be a bit misleading. It's been raining here since Friday.

we got almost 4.5 inches here in North Florida yesterday. Until recently, we were in a drought. It's cyclical. Officially, we've had 4.344".......................since Jan 1. If it doesn't rain for a month back east, folks are in a drought. It's based on averages. We haven't had significant rain in about 3 months now. A couple of events at 0.01'-0.02", but nothing to change soil moisture or stream flow. I bet that 4.5" soaked your area pretty good. But, if it doesn't rain there again for a few weeks, you'll be in a drought again. Ours, even with a good storm, will likely continue into next year because our place is too dry to catch up anytime soon. Maybe, and a big maybe, if we have a good snow season next winter, we'll come out of this drought. Our cycles just last a little bit longer than back east.  we have had over 12 inches this month. Of course, we don't get as much show as y'all do out west.

Entire civilizations have fallen in the southwest more than once in recent history due to drought.
We are likely not the anointed ones to suddenly dodge that bullet.
Rolling brownouts, massive fires, and water shortages are not some fear mongering the liberal media is spreading - it is a reality, as in RIGHT NOW.
I know anyone east of the Mississippi thinks it is a crock of chit, but it will eventually impact you.
If your golf course runs out of water you won't be able to pretend to golf there any more. LOL

A big part of the Southwest is historically a desert correct? For some reason.

Dude, you're giving the rest of us a bad name, you from Tuscaloosa? 🤣🤣 Man it's rained so much here the local radar quit working or gave up. It was raining before daylight, and nothing on the radar. Those fine folks in Tuscaloosa sent me to Orange Beach for an Alabama Beach Mouse study. You have access down there don't ya?

We got some rain here in the mountains of Utah. Nice change from the heat. Not enough but we’ll take it.

Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.
There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.
