Shasta Dam, the main aquifer for most of California (via the Cali aquaduct system) is 2 feet from the top. Another week and it will be overflowing the spillways.
Yes, and our own local resources are either at peak now, or as is Big Bear having to open the spillways.
Our neighbor is Lake Mathews. We can see the Lake from the road to the ranch as we come down the hill. It’s at a peak never before seen by us in the 24 years we’ve been here.
