   When will the drought end?

   • No one can say for sure when this drought will end, but if history is any indication, it eventually will. The problem is, unlike in the past, the underlying climate is so much hotter, and the drought-hole so much deeper, that erasing the soil moisture deficit wrought by 20-plus years of aridity will be harder than ever.

   Will the drought continue through 2030?

   • But it would be unexceptional in the grand scheme of the past 1,200 years. A new study in Nature Climate Change shows that Earth’s warming climate has made the western drought about 40 percent more severe, making it the region’s driest stretch since A.D. 800. And there’s a very strong chance the drought will continue through 2030.

   Could drought be eliminated by summer in California?

   • It seems as though most of the surface water drought – drought involving streams and reservoirs – could be eliminated by summer in California and the Great Basin, across Nevada and western Utah. The early 2023 storms likely could have filled Lake Oroville, one of California’s largest reservoirs.

   How long will a drought last?

   • They repeated the exercise over and over to get a better sense of the odds. Even absent climate change, there’s a very high chance the drought would last through 2023; in 94 percent of their simulations, it goes on through next year, and in 33 percent of their simulations it lasts all the way to 2030.
