In the midst of the pandemic, it is easy to overlook California's yearly water supply. The snow-pack numbers this year do not bode well for next year.

It's easy to forget about the drought when the pandemic is raging and half of the states are trying to get the Civil War started again, but for a Californian the drought should be the main thing on their minds. Large municipal water systems are likely to be fine, at least next year, but just due to the nature of stochastic processes we can expect at least a few small municipal water districts to go dry, and some irrigation districts are probably not going to get any water deliveries at all.
