Hadn't looked at this graphic since January. When storage encroaches beyond that red line, officials let water out to make room for more. That's happening now. cdec.water.ca.gov/reportapp/…

The biggest drought stories are ecosystems and groundwater - among other big drought stories.
Eye-opener from @jackjlee on over-pumping of the Central Valley aquifer -- which makes this year's rain a rounding error.
While the aquifer holds ~950 km^3, if you have to drill 2000 feet to get to it, pumping & filtering costs go way up

California’s great central marsh was seasonal, emerging from winter rains and spring snowmelt. This 1848 map, Frémont’s last, shows only the now dry Tulare Lake. It also shows various wagon routes to CA. Congress ordered and distributed 10k copies to encourage migration west.

Another depiction of this lake/marsh, albeit somewhat smaller, can be seen in this 1843 map from American explorer, general, and politician John C. Frémont.
