Jay Familglietti, NASA’s top water scientist, recently warned that California has only a year’s supply of water left in storage facilities and the backup groundwater is rapidly depleting. Despite this harrowing fact, California has no backup plan to address this crisis.
“California has no contingency plan for a persistent drought like this one (let alone a 20-plus-year mega-drought), except, apparently, staying in emergency mode and praying for rain,” stated Familglietti. “In short, we have no paddle to navigate this crisis.”
UPDATE: California Gov. Jerry Brown issues ineffectual, mandatory water restriction as one-third of our nation’s crops are threatened. See Page 3 for updates.

Now what
Yeah Vitaliy Kovtunov they are talking about raising our water prices. We already have mandatory cuts. And $#%&!@* is already so expensive as it is
So much for your beautiful weather in February Shelia Sadonova. I’ll stay by the lake Eire, it’s $#%&!@*ing cold but no shortage of water in these parts.
So funny! You find me a job and I will come that way. And drink all your water
Don’t $#%&!@* up the Great Lake region because Californians are greedy $#%&!@*holes.
You get what you asked for!
Funny we don’t have that problem in Michigan.
Try exporting all those illegals back to whence they came.
How about a pipe line.
Water levels up this year in Michigan. California will want a pipeline direct from lake Michigan.
