Wow, I thought it was bad.....

Sun and warm year round is fun and all, but you need this bad.

Rain is of little help unless you get an over abundance of it. Too much run off and not enough captured. You need snow the melt slowly and runs down the naturally formed streams into rivers and lakes. It can pour in the low lands and we see zero benefit from it, straight to the ocean. It has to snow in the high lands above the rivers and lakes.

Yes, and because there is no snow (literally) there will be no runoff. No runoff means no streams, no rivers, and soon, no lakes. SoCal can syphon off the Colorado, but the spicot might be closed in the NoCal/Socal water system....

SoCal already does syphon more than it's share from the Colo.

The Upper Colo. Basin snowpack is at 97% now, wish it was at 197%

Yeah, the norcal folks will have it worse than us socal'ers this year unless there are mudslides and deluges in the near future.....not something we are very good at handling either.

There's still 2 months of winter left so let's hold off the hysteria just a little longer.

Which is why the mighty Colorado is nothing more than a meandering creek by the time it gets to Yuma. This year, it may dry up long before that point.
