With all the rain we've gotten and plenty of snow in the mountains, do you think California's drought is finally over?

That rain dance you did...worked !!! :)

Nope.

If NASA's latest climate prediction is accurate ... California will pretty much be facing permanent drought in the next decade or so, due to global warming.

Was there ever really a drought? I grew up in Southern  California. It is a naturally semi arid climate. There is never enough water to supply the huge growing population there. In their eyes it is surely a drought. But what about the eyes of nature?

The only way to deal with this in the future is unnaturally through technology. Reduce, Recycle, Reuse.

There is going to be rain in California anyway you put that question in

I wish! I'm tired of looking at my dead or dying plants and being on a water schedule. I would like to fill up my above ground pool. We need more rain in Southern California, looks like you've been doing pretty good up there, Mr. C.

There was a drought in california?

I wouldn't celebrate too soon, but definitely this year is better than the last four years. There was actually snow at Tahoe over winter break. Last year that wasn't any snow there at all.
