"Growth rings on trees show evidence of ancient megadroughts, lasting over a century," reported NBC's George Lewis as the Gov Arnold Schwarzenegger warned that another dry season would be "catastrophic." Lewis predicted that irrigation will grow so expensive that many of the state's farms will be forced to sell. The last twelve months have been so dry that the city of Riverside has received even less rain than Death Valley.
