It's been 111 days of no rain here in the P-Hoe-Nix area. It's been so long since it rain my daughter was springing her rice on the table saying, "rain, rain" cuz it looks like rain on cartoons.
-
Somebody do a rain dance or somethin'
-
LOL We just go done with our rain. I cannot wait for summer. The Bay Area is nice and green.
-
Well It's nice and brown here so there! lol
-
Ill be back in the bay area when it gets all nice and green too, whaha
-
I'm shaking dry brown twigs at you both.
-
Because of the forming El Niño in the Pacific, it will get even dryer in your area. How do you get water out there in the desert?The El Niño will give us more and worse hurricanes.
-
Well there are two basic ways. You can turn on that thing above your sink or you can buy it in bottles at the store.
-
You can turn on that thing above your sinkWhy doesn't sand come out? Are you guys going to have any water in 20 years, or will you all be drinking bottles of Perrier?

Iv been looking at moving to AZ but I couldnt begin to think about pheonix, thats just caca, I was thinking more along the lines of Yuma, 3 hours to Imperial beach and 5 minutes to mexico :laughing:
-
Nope! We get water from the Colorado River. And there are actually a lot of lakes and what-nots out here. PLUS! the northern part of the state is cold and snowy and stuff, Pine trees and all. More boats per person than anywhere else in the US. Or so I’ve heard.
-
I live in Florence. Not in actually P-Hoe-Nix.
-
In the future, a lot of people are going to be fighting over Colorado River water. The drought isn't helping things.Living in the desert may become as impractical as living in an eroding flood plain in a hurricane zone. Speaking of which, as things warm up, South Florida will eventually be under water, as it was long ago.
-
People already are. They are trying to basically bully Mexico in taking less water than they have a right to. (According to some treaty or something signed way back when.) lol Yes, but my house is affordable. We paid $170k for a 2400sf house. And I'm sure all the continents will come back together again at some point too.
-
ah it was snowing all day long where i am
-
Canada should sell some O that sweet necture of life to their good ol' buddies down here in AZ. Then we'd all be happy. I'm sure even you'd agree that rain wouldn't be quite so bad if there were some extra green (or whatever color your money is) lining your pocket. eh?
-
You guys just keep pouring that slat in the wound. Sadistic I tell you!
-
There will be serious water shortages within a few decades. In fact, South Florida may be pretty screwed.Whatever the continents do, it won't happen for many, many millions of years.
-
This place is gonna be scary at some point. But we can't hide in a hole and just hope it passes us by.
-
No, but we may have to move from Arizona and Florida to Indiana.
-
but...but...but what about california
