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

Sounds like we need to give Ukraine another $40 billion. That'll fix things.

Sounds like Vegas is going to lose its sports franchises and get reclaimed by the desert.

Haven’t they been finding bodies from 50 yo Vegas mob hits? ETA, or I’m guessing it’s just the bones.

That’s a strange way to describe a cycle of nature. Do you hate nature?

Hmm...I was told voting Democrat would fix these things because Republicans don't believe in climate change.

Not enough upstream rain to meet downstream electricity demand.

Sounds like poor planning.

Best solution I can think of is to completely cut off the supply to California and do not allow them to leave.

No great loss

There is a really easy solution. Nuclear power. But as a nation we are like 10 years behind in needed nuclear power plants because the climate change nuts don't like nuclear too and they drive policy.

The sad part is we probably will, and will just borrow more money from China to pay for it.

I always thought it would make sense to have a huge pipe from the Mississippi River across the country as a bit of an emergency system for any draught conditions. Could feed the 3-4 major reservoirs/ rivers along the way.

Is it the worst drought ever, or is it because more folks are taking the water?
