Yep, no water shortage in LA at all!
Great job @CallMeBigErn. Isn’t this your area of expertise?Key Points
- Extreme record or near-record dryness since the start of the water year (October 1, 2024) has expanded and intensified drought in southern and central California and Nevada, including in the area of the Los Angeles wildfires.
- Strong Santa Ana wind events continue to impact Southern California, where vegetation is already quite dry. This further increased the short-term dryness due to high evaporative demand in Southern California.
- Outlooks for the next two weeks suggest the dry conditions and critical fire weather conditions will continue across the region.
- With 1–2 months remaining in the climatologically wettest part of the year, there is time for wet conditions to return. However, due to the persistent dry conditions since the start of the water year, wet conditions may, at best, slightly reduce drought conditions.
- Drought preparedness is key due to the potential worsening of drought conditions and impacts, especially those who may be impacted in the short term.
-
Water shortage and drought are two different things. Southern California reservoirs are full. Water shortage has nothing to do with LA Fires like our fucktarded president wants you to believe in his twisted political narrative. It's clearly working.
-
You do know the Cascades also provide water to the Central Valley, right?
Also, it’s the first of February. Much of snow season is left.
You’ll do anything to absolve your Democrats of any culpability, yet you’re blaming Trump for something that hasn’t happened.
How’s your shitty life going, by the way? Still upset about whatever it was?
-
Water shortage is not a problem in Southern California. This is a lie.
According to @CallMeBigErn, that is.
According to pesky statistics and water levels compiled by experts, it’s a fact.
You’re crushing it, Ern! Disgusting liar. Why would you state what is an easily disproved falsehood?
Drought Expanded and Intensified in Southern and Central California and Nevada, and Is Expected to Worsen

You may want to tell LA there aren’t water shortages seeing as they have had restrictions on usage in 2024.
I’ve never seen anything like this idiot. There was no water to fight the fires, you idiot, because enough water wasn’t put in reservoirs to combat them.
Meth bender for sure.

Keep going, Ern!
“Well droughts, measured shortages, and use restrictions don’t really mean there isn’t enough water Derp Derp Derp” says @CallMeBigErn
AI Overview
+1
Los Angeles and other parts of California and Nevada experienced a water shortage in 2024 due to drought and high temperatures. The drought intensified in the winter of 2025. CausesHigh temperatures: Near-record summer temperatures dried out the landscape.Santa Ana winds: Strong Santa Ana winds increased evaporative demand in Southern California.Lack of summer monsoon activity: A lack of summer monsoon activity contributed to the development of severe drought in southern Nevada and southeastern California.Cumulative precipitation deficit: California has a cumulative precipitation deficit from 2000 to 2024.
ImpactsWater shortages: The Santa Ynez Reservoir was empty since February 2024.Vegetation dryness: Vegetation in Southern California was already dry, and the Santa Ana winds increased evaporative demand.Drought in the Los Angeles wildfires area: The drought intensified in the area of the Los Angeles wildfires.
OutlookCalifornia's future will likely see continued fluctuations between wet and dry periods.The State Water Project's delivery capacity is likely to be substantially reduced.Below-normal precipitation is likely through November for the Southwest and Southern California.

All roads lead back to the Santa Ynez Reservoir, as they always do. A reservoir offline for maintenance, not because of a water shortage. It's a blatantly transparent political Strawman.
California reservoirs are above historical highs. Water shortage is not relevant to the LA fires. You're gettin' played, son. -
It’s the inability of you cultists to even once question your leadership that leads to what you have now as an old party led by rich people who don’t care about their citizens..
Believe it or not, I have criticized Trump more than a few times, but I align with him much more than the UniParty’s status quo and promises to fix the same problems for almost 60 years now.

Fern has his tighty whities in bunch.

Sled doesn't wear underwear.

Buy nice jeans, dress to the left, and you don’t have to, Ern.
-
I haven’t worn underwear since college.
-
I wear Duluth Armachillo bullpen. Best damn underwear I've ever worn.

Somewhere, somehow, something’s gonna pay … and it’s your ballsack.
Let’s party!

Hey @CallMeBigErn, blizzard conditions all week at Alpine Meadows and Squaw.
Watch your snowpack accumulate right before your eyes all week.
-
It won't get us near average but it's gonna be a nice punch. It's rippin' out here.
And, ahem…sir, out of respect for Indigenous women, Olympic Valley, please. -
We’re back to “outrage of the day” for the TDS crowd, I see. I like how laymen think Trump didn’t consult the Corps of Engineers prior to deciding to give people who desperately need water, water.
-
Hey @CallMeBigErn, why is California/Newsom deliberately limiting the water supply to the Central Valley farmers?
-
Too far, Ev. This funny money is no good here. I need better bait.
-
What you need is some consistent sleep and likely a detox, bruv.
-
Yeah, we passed this funding directly in 2013?
All the money has been corruptly funneled elsewhere while no water infrastructure got built.
Just like all those EV charging stations.
Just like the high speed bullshit train.
Just like the $25 Billion missing from the homeless fund.
Etc.
It amazes me that even if you hate Republicans that someone can't also hate the Democrats for such obvious theft and corruption.

Cultists believe fully in their leadership and that everybody not in it be treated as an enemy. This also applies to cults like today’s Democrat party.
You have Hakeem Jeffries calling for fighting in the streets with no penalty for inciting f these actions.
Cucumber Schumer (I’m leaving the autocorrect) threatening SCOTUS justifies to the point a cultist tries to assassinate Kavanaugh.
You can’t reason in policy debates with a person like @CallMeBigErn, so why try?

Haven't you heard that people are aroused?

Squaw will always be squaw... not Palisades or wtf else it is.... fing stupid.
