It's absolutely worth reading, even if you have to find a computer to look at it

It definitely puts the most "recent" changes in horrifying perspective, but I'm also fascinated by the changes in just 22k years - a mere blink of the eye geologically.
Wut??
H. sap has been around much longer than 22 thousand years, so seems like you BIFM (broke it for me).
Oh well deal with it.

Not a drop of rain in Oregon all October. Willamette River and it’s tributaries are very low and slow.
"Let's be careful out there."
We've had .2" of rain in over 100 days (less on the south end of the island), the driest stretch since they've been keeping records on this island.
And here in the eastern Cascade foothills, my friend’s well is going dry…
Whether it’s drought or a new neighbor that has decided he needs to water 3 acres of turf for six hours in the middle of the fucking day, looks like his well may need to go from 400’ to 475’
I told him to go to new neighbor’s place with a bag of fertilizer one night and write out “don’t water your lawn so fucking much” in the turf in front of his porch. Sadly given rain and snow in the near forecast, that may have to wait until next summer…

The Imperial Valley uses more water from the Colorado River than Arizona and Nevada combined.

So, with all this rain that Cali is getting, and Colorado seems like it's having a good snow year, would this have any affect on Lake Mead, or other water reservoirs on the west coast? Or is this just an annual drop in the bucket that is meaningless?

PBS was talking about this last night.
Yeah some reservoirs will get filled up but most of the water runs off as stormwater and in Cali that means right to the oceans unless stored as seasonal snow pack. Not much groundwater recharge due to low soil moisture content.
And unfortunately most stormwater runoff is fairly well polluted by the shit it collects from surfaces during runoff.

Word on the street is that Cachuma is going to spill come Friday. Maybe bodes well for some others to do so as well.
"casitas" really needs to get their act together there. Sheesh!
