More west coast drought news...BC “Level 4 drought declared for South Coast and Lower Fraser ‘Extremely dry’ conditions mean water managers may soon bring in tighter restrictions” If deep droughts smack in the middle of rainforest zones don’t tell you that things are already fundamentally shifting, I’m not sure what would. : cbc.ca Update on drought in Caribbean. Spoke with a colleague yesterday who told me she has water one day and then its shut off for the next two in San Juan, Puerto Rico. After discussing the details of how she deals with the challenges I found this article from Tuesday in the Times that summarizes and connects the dots. “The drought here has not received as much attention as the one in California and other Western states. But the dry weather, which meteorologists say is caused by the Pacific warming pattern known as El Niño, has spread across much of the Caribbean, affecting countries like Cuba and the Dominican Republican as well as crops and livestock. In Puerto Rico, some reservoirs have come within 30 days of running out of water.” nytimes.com
