It was 84 here yesterday and sunny. No rain at all in the near forecast.
Fred,
In some ways the water problems here go back a long time. Ever since they started building L.A. there have been worries down there about water. But they just keep building more and more and there is less and less water. Now the fires they have going are really burning some of those huge multi million dollar mansions around Santa Barbara and L. A. I think the Santa Anna Winds were supposed to stop last night, but haven't seen anything so far this morning about how they are doing.
Our water problems up here started years ago with a prolonged drought and them wanting more and more water send on down river. I was watching a new show on the History channel and they think we may be headed for another dust bowl type time like in the 1930s. To much water is being drawn out of the ground for irrigation and not enough goes back in, so the water table is shrinking pretty fast. Also Asia is facing much the same thing. The next war could well be over water and food and not
oil.
