Look at the bright side: lots of missing person cases will now be solved.

The result of too many people living in a desert...nothing more, nothing less.

Hyperbole.

Cali/Vegas is just sucking it up.

Well it is a dessert. Apparently selling water when in a drought doesn’t work out so well.

I would suggest putting a gay black female or an old white tranny with crazy color hair in charge of fixing this issue.

The wife and I went to Park City & Salt Lake City a few weeks back, these pictures mirror what's happening with the Great Salt Lake. Antelope Island has a marina, but when we were there the edge of the water was a good 50-100 yards from the breaker surrounding the marina.

What’s the size and pitch of the prop on that boat that sank?

Asking for a friend.

Its going to get much much worse and it will cause many significant changes in our nation.

From what I understand reading into this simply due to the agriculture shift is we have been in an abnormally wet period in the west and the climate is now simply reverting to the mean which means an end to large scale fruit and veg production on the west coast and not nearly enough water for the population with its current lifestyle.

reminds me of the Salton Sea. I was there in the late 70's.

Absolutely devastating pictures! The West is experiencing the worst drought in our nation's history. I've never ever seen anything like this before.


Is it really devastating that the land is reverting back to the condition it was in before man-made river blockage caused a lake to form?

Water is being relocated from one location to another. Is that devastating?

So building lakes and cities in the middle of fricking deserts was a bad idea? Who knew?

We went to Lake Powell last Fall and it was pretty low, but not this bad.

I am sure that white privilege somehow had a hand in the demise of Lake Mead.

When Dr. Michael Berry M.D. who foresaw the 2008 real estate collapse, and was portrayed in the movie “The Big Short” was asked what he was now investing in, his answer was “water”.

Cali is soaking up all the water.

Study or two show that Cali is actually more desertlike. The past 300+ years have been especially wet and the climate is reverting back to desert conditions.
