He really hasn't done much whining and he certainly isn't alone there in the great state of California. Really, it is the entire West but some areas, like here, are in the 90% to 100% zone - for annual precipitation. Not much snow cover and I sure don't want to see any more sub-zero weather without it, but, we've got a fairly good supply of snow building in our mountains.
Not so with California and other states south. . . this is from about 1 week ago and the numbers are still going down:
It isn't true with my old home town of Medford in that "rainy" state of Oregon. Medford has had right at 8.97" of precipitation this year. The record is 10.43" and normal for Medford is 18.31". As you can see, not every corner of Oregon is awash in rain every year.
Altho' that looks fairly bad for Medford, as you can see from the map, some areas of California are much further below normal for annual rainfall.

I want to save water for my garden.
