[Western Water @WesternWaterCA]

California's water system must be prepared for both wet and dry years. Projects like @sitesproject are designed to capture and store water during periods of abundant rainfall so it can be used when drought conditions return. https://t.co/wBDM09cFcs 📸 : @SitesProject

A drought emergency has been issued for Colorado.

The headwaters of the Colorado River are in extreme to exceptional drought, the worst category of drought.

It's going to be a brutal summer of water shortages, drought, and extreme heat in the West.

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

Despite one of the worst spring snowpacks in California history, the state’s reservoirs remain in great shape at 111% of normal for mid-June.

With a potential Super El Niño on the way, which would tilt the odds toward above-average winter precipitation, California may be headed for its fifth straight spring with above-average water storage in 2027.

[Westside Farmer @JoeDelBosque]

This is California, folks! This is where most of the fruit in America comes from. 70% of the cantaloupes in the country come from here. Have a great summer, and enjoy lots of cold, sweet fruit!

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@JoeDelBosque Hope not.

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

El Nino is coming. https://t.co/0ka4XK2BB8

Our CEO, Susan Kennedy, recently joined Adán Ortega, Chair of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (@mwdh2o) and Charles Wilson, CEO of SoCal Water Coalition (@SoCalWaterComm) at the United Contractors (@UnitedContrs) Public Works Summit in Anaheim to discuss the importance of long-term water planning, infrastructure investment, and collaboration.

As California continues to face evolving water challenges, bringing diverse voices together to share ideas and solutions is more important than ever.

Conversations like these help move us toward a more resilient and sustainable water future.

@dpshow @Nutrafol No. It isnt. Recency bias. West averaged more points per game 27 v 24 reg season (29 v 27) and total points (4,557 v 4,147) in the PLAYOFFS - no 3 point shot. He also played defense. All first team NBA defender in the first 4 years after the award. All-NBA first 10x. v Curry 4.

You mean data centers feeding zero people? Have they started to eat data. Not to say data centers are “bad”. Where they acquire property rights with water rights, stay within their sustainable quantity they are a beneficial use. But its not ag v data centers. False narrative.

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

Insane stat of the day: California almonds use roughly 3–5.5 million acre-feet of water per year, depending on methodology.

That's ~4-7x more water than all data centers in North America used combined in 2025.

While character counts, reputation is informative. Happy to be recognized among the 66.

@SleeperNuggets No. The should trade CB. Get a rim protector. Release JV. TRADE Zeke and Darron.

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@NuggetsNationCP Damn right

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@NuggetsLead They dont have a high enough pick to matter. But maybe they should look in Serbia.

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

Just when you want to make the point about the importance of judicial review, why it matters when fundamental rights (like property) are involved - there is this. https://t.co/VyvyyrShci

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@NBA__Courtside Sorry. He is a hell of a competitor. Showed up big. In a big game. However, he is a flopper. And he did get his ring against the Pacers when their best player went down while they were winning in game 7. Context matters.

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@WorldWideWob Guess your anointing OKC as one on the greatest teams of all time a little premature. Hyperbole. 4-8 v Spurs this season.

[Scott Slater🇺🇦 @SlaterWaterLaw]

@NuggetsLead After watching this game you can see why Jokic says they are not close. The Nuggets don’t try. There is no effort remotely close to what is required. They need another coach

[Water Mark 🚰 @OtayMark]

Could ocean desalination help solve Las Vegas’ water woes? It might

In a vote Thursday, the Southern Nevada Water Authority board approved a memorandum of understanding that allows General Manager John Entsminger to hammer out a first-of-its-kind water transfer deal with the San Diego County Water Authority. In a region where growth could outpace permanent water supplies in the next few decades, that matters.

Dan Denham, general manager of the San Diego County Water Authority said his agency is equipped to eventually pass off all of the plant’s water via a water transfer if a deal surfaces, but the volume of water that could be included depends on several factors, including the length of the agreement. Arizona officials are in early talks to benefit from some of the water, too.

[Western Growers @WesternGrowers]

Why are grocery prices rising in California? One major reason: it’s becoming far more expensive to grow food.

A recent @CalPoly study found the regulatory costs of growing lettuce in California have increased nearly 1,400% in the last 20 years. Those rising costs don’t stay on the farm — they ripple through the food supply chain and eventually show up at the grocery store.

We need a more balanced regulatory approach.
