We really need some rain here badly, Cars.
It barely sprinkled on Thursday and that was the only precipitation since December 7th.
Getting near breaking the record for dryness in this drought. The average rainfall at SFO by this time of year is 11.5 inches. So far this year, only 1.5 inches have dropped. Good for air travel, but really hard on farmers and the salmon population.
The governor announced yesterday that the reserves aren't going to be tapped this year, so increased scale backs and conservation it is.
Weird times - terrible cold and storms in a lot of the country and dry as a bone in others.
