NASA Study Finds 1934 Had Worst Drought of Last Thousand Years

"A new study using a reconstruction of North American drought history over the last 1,000 years found that the drought of 1934 was the driest and most widespread of the last millennium. Using a tree-ring-based drought record from the years 1000 to 2005 and modern records, scientists from NASA and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory found the 1934 drought was 30 percent more severe than the runner-up drought (in 1580) and extended across 71.6 percent of western North America. For comparison, the average extent of the 2012 drought was 59.7 percent."

Drought in the U.S. is almost non-existent with CO2 and global temps at all-time highs. What does CO2 have to do with droughts? Oh I see, cherry pick a horrible fire in Canada in a region strongly influenced by El Nino.
