here in central California, we get our water from the snowpack in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.  no snow in the winter means no snow to melt when the weather warms up which means no water draining into rivers and creeks down into the valley.  my nearest ski resort is 90 minutes away.  been pretty much closed for three years now due to no snow.  my snowboard is getting dusty hanging on the wall.
