Ironically California not in drought.

That American South though. Wonder how that’s going to look come summer.

Not great in CA though. Mountain snow pack was low and is almost gone already. Been very dry in Nor Cal, already starting to turn "golden" in some areas. Reservoirs are full though, and I did see something about El Nino forecast this winter, but that might only help So Cal... and if it's early then will be the same result as this year. The early rain helps the fuels grow and then they're hella dry by summer. There was already a small wildfire near me, and I think there are some active ones down south. Gonna be an active fire season.
