Nebraska has been at drought levels for years. It's also the cattle king of the world.
Last time I drove through it was on radio topic about every 1/2 hour.

As climate changes many other areas will be at risk or "in risk" already. In the valley around Palm Springs Calif water is almost affecting property values. La Quinta has its own underground water supply while surrounding towns are in scramble mode. The Colorado R water distribution had been a large political issues between big cities and between states forever but became a serious issue in the 1970s.

my town gets its water from a 1,400' deep classier ice ball left over from when the last ice age visited. We have at least a 200 yr supply at current usage. The rest of Long Island is a series of 20-50' deep wells that only get chlorinated before fed into distribution. Old info is that 15% of these wells grew contaminated from pre 1960s contamination. The curve was up.

my town is about 35,000 people with no water hungry industry. Except for summer invasion water usage is 4M/day. That's equal to 4 1,000gal FD pumpers working full blast forever.
