Lompico is one of the affected areas.
“We have been unable to take water out of the creek since August and well production is down, and we didn’t have that much water to begin with.” said Lois Henry from the Lompico water board. She is certain the district will soon have to truck in water.
Wells are starting to run dry and reservoir levels are low as the state faces the worst drought in almost a century. The number of vulnerable communities is expected to increase over the coming weeks and months, and the list will be updated weekly said Dave Mazzera, acting drinking water division chief for the California Department of Public Health.
Asked by board member Hank Nordhoff, a San Diego businessman, where the water will come from to bail out small systems, Croyle said he's working on it. "You are going to get it wherever you can get it," he said. Retorted Nordhoff: "That's a frightening reply."

The price of land in well-watered places will sky-rocket this summer.
The Ozarks have remained relatively unscathed by drought, and not impaired by snow storms.
Unfortunately, their relative sparse population will have massive increases.
Cloud seeding is no longer considered a fringe science, and is considered a mainstream tool to improve rain precipitation and snow. New technology and research have produced reliable results that make cloud seeding a dependable and affordable water-supply practice for many regions.[

Our well is part of State Water Table Survey. A fellow comes by and measures it times a year. He always lets us know what looks like. At the moment it is exactly like it has been for several years so we should be in good shape. We also have over 3000 gallons in two tanks for reserve.
I have never seen the area up here as dry as it is and most of the folks are freaking out. Our neighbor has gone from 2000 head of cattle to 200 and is thinking of dumping those at auction. Most all the ranchers here will either not move their cows from upcountry or they will sell them off. Those that stay will spend a fortune on feed as there is currently nothing on the ground. Many areas are raw dirt and no weeds at all, long since dried up and blown away.
It's gonna be a rough year for the price of beef. And Veggies.

Why can't they simply mine/harvest water from the ocean like we do down here? Is there not a coastline for them to work from? They are already importing loads of ground water as it is. What's the problem as to why they aren't collecting from their own coastline? Please educate me on this!
