Is the great California drought finally quitting?
- olliej 10y agoUh no? A few days/weeks of rain aren't enough to recover from years of not having any. A long drought means that even when rain does subsequently fall it just runs back into the ocean - the ground is too dry and there aren't sufficient catchment areas to slow it down. CA needs months of the rain that we had for a single signle day. First to get the ground absorbing water again, and only then will aquifers and the like start seeing any recovery. This is all drought recovery 101 :-/
