I did the math a while ago and figured California would need a desal plant on every couple miles of coastline to meet its total water needs, including ag, assuming no other water sources. Something else has to give even with the current rain and snow levels.
And I fear as a central Oregonian that we're going to have our own water problems. Planning to ship our water to California is a political third rail here, just like in the Owens River Valley.
