EVEN IF THIS IS WHAT SOME ARE CALL A WEATHER TREND

 

EVEN IF THIS IS WHAT SOME ARE CALL A WEATHER TREND.... 
 

 
Like what I tweeted to Glenn Greenwald about his crowing over the latest "authoritative" report on the LaFayette Park Clearing last August: "I'd take 'cold comfort' as one who'd have to endure it, that it's not as bad as previously depicted.."
California’s Drought Is So Bad They’re Driving Salmon to the Ocean in Trucks

The drought in California is so bad that the state is loading almost 17 million hatchery salmon into trucks for a ride to the coast in a massive effort to help the species.

Typically, Chinook salmon spawn in rivers and then migrate to the ocean as juveniles, eventually swimming back up rivers to lay their eggs. But this year, the West is experiencing on of the worst droughts in history, with California Governor Gavin Newsom declaring it an emergency in April.

The once-cool and deep riverways salmon have historically traveled are now in some places hot, cracked stretches of dirt. And to make sure that salmon get to the ocean, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife will use 146 trucks to carry the fish up to 100 miles from their hatcheries to the San Francisco Bay and other water areas, according to a release by the agency. They are being let loose at different times of day to avoid a feeding frenzy by lurking seabirds.
