I honestly thought about putting money on Kalshi today that the California Electric Grid will fail this week because of the #heatwave and put another bet on #Polymarket for the Governor to mention #drought conditions with water restrictions and such. the average temp in March 58 degrees in SF 🧵

Just did my weekly check on #Maine #drought monitor: underground supply & running waters are still too low, & the report I read from 8 March says all our snow won't end our drought. & it is friggin winter in Nebraska--why're they having fires?

A wildflower survived a historic megadrought. Scientists now think they know how | CNN Wild scarlet monkeyflowers in California survived a historic drought by relying on a rapid evolution, marking the first time the process has been observed in the wild.

During the worst dry spell in 1,200yrs, #wildflowers relied on a type of #RapidEvolution ( #EvolutionaryRescue) that had never been documented

This happens when a species is able to recover from the threat of #extinction by an external factor such as a #drought

Metro Denver cities begin enacting mandatory outdoor watering limits for spring as drought, warmth continue When Thornton enacted a Stage 1 drought declaration last week, it became the first city in metro Denver to place a mandatory twice-weekly limit on outdoor watering for the upcoming hot season. But the northern suburb likely won’t be the last. Metro cities and utilities are starting to lay out various defensive strategies against what has become a crispy-dry 2026, starting with an alarmingly warm and dry winter in Colorado that’s been marked by one of the worst snowpacks in recorded state history. Denver Water, which serves 1.5 million people, could follow a similar track to Thornton’s by month’s end. Aurora Water, which is relied upon by 400,000 people, may be right behind with its own Stage 1 drought declaration in early April. “We’re looking for a 20% reduction in outdoor irrigation compared to last year,” said Shonnie Cline, an Aurora Water spokeswoman. The Aurora City Council is set to have a study session on the city’s water situation on March 23, followed by a council vote on potential watering restrictions on April 6. “We’re at the lowest snowpack we’ve been at since 1978,” Cline said. Locally, that also translates to abysmal conditions in the Clear Creek basin, where Westminster...
