    During the 2011-16 California drought, politicians and scientific experts claimed that global warming had permanently altered the climate, and that snow and rain would become increasingly rare in California. Then-Governor Jerry Brown (and current bald-headed lunatic) famously declared that no rain and drought is "the new normal" in California. As a result, long-planned low-elevation reservoirs, designed to store water during exceptionally wet years, were considered all but useless and thus were never built.

    Then, in 2016 and 2017, California received record snow and rainfall-- and the windfall of millions of acre-feet of runoff was mostly let out to sea. Nothing since has been learned.

    The only thing predictable about climate change is its unpredictability.
    Hope this helps.
