Water is going to be a crisis issue EVERYWHERE before too long, as the planet heats up. We just moved from a water crisis area (SoCal). "Crisis" is a good word for what L.A. faces from here on.
When I was a kid and we moved from the Midwest to L.A., I clearly remember stormy winters. Blustering wind that fought your every step across the street. Rain that came down in torrents, flooding streets all over town, and flooding our poor-drainage back yard every winter. We jokingly called it our own personal lake. And there was a "Rainy Season." By the time we left, fifty-some-odd years later in my case, we were lucky to have a few days of SOME rain - barely enough to help partially restore the local reservoirs. You'd see these wide light brown "aprons" appearing around their perimeters. That was exposed ground or siding with the evaporation of the water within. Showed you how high the water level USED TO BE. And all around, the hills were dry and brown and barren (where you used to see cows grazing). The trees there, that used to be healthy and leafy and green, were clearly stressed and struggling from lack of moisture.
I tell you - it was seriously scary. I found it deeply worrisome. Still do. Fearful is more like it.
