I moved to California in the fall of 1975, and within a year, we were in a two-year drought. I looked online to see how many droughts we have experienced in CA since 1975, and the answer is 6. The length, in years varied from that 2-year drought, 1976-’77, to a 7-year drought, scanning 2011 through 2017. The 3-year drought of 2020-2022 just ended. It’s clear that drought has become a part of CA life.
Wildfires, on…

“It was a shock to wake up one morning and find that no water came out of the faucet. That meant we could not flush our toilets, shower or wash our clothes. ”
This is why I monitor the static level of my well. Then there are no surprises when you turn on the tap.
And speaking of static levels, last fall my well went from the lowest reading I have made in my 28 years of living here, this spring (last week) the highest. Phew, talk about a land of extremes!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I realoly appreciate your efforts andI am waiting for your further post thank you once again.
