Is the West's Dry Spell Really a Megadrought? | Climate Central

Someone shared this with me the other day and it certainly presents some concerns... We tend to look at climate very myopically. We look at it in relation to very recent past which does not present adequate data to tell us anything but micro-changes. Climate, geology, etc., require us to look well beyond the last 100 or 200 years. California may have been in an abnormally wet period when it was settled and farmed. When it becomes "normal" which is much drier if this and other sources are accurate, it will be quite a disaster for the cities and for agriculture.
