California Drought-Free

For the first time in 25 years, California is completely drought free.

This contradicts years of media claims that the state had entered a permanent or “mega-drought” driven by climate change:

The Independent as recently as Jan, 2025.
In 2021, The San Francisco Chronicle wrote that unusually dry winters would become the “new normal” in CA.


Over the past 60-90 days, areas have logged precipitation up to 600% of normal:


While the Sierra Nevada, which supplies roughly 30% of California’s water, has accumulated several hundred inches of snow:


The official drought monitor now shows zero drought classification statewide. All 12 of California’s largest reservoirs are above 100% of their historical average for early January.

Snowpack was said to be gone for good. Wet years were declared a thing of the past. Instead, California’s climate behaved exactly as it always has — violently cyclical.

A sustained polar pattern is taking shape across North America, a sequence of Arctic air intrusions expected to cycle through mid-to-late January, with the cold reloading between waves.
