Upcoming ‘Wetter Pattern’ Won’t Touch Epic California Drought!

While a ‘somewhat’ wetter pattern returns to California next week, the dry pattern of the past 4 YEARS is only worsening one of the worst droughts in a lifetime. The Sierra snow pack is sitting at a mere 6% of normal and never has there been so little snow as of April 1. This has forced the […]
