Most seem to think that droughts are annual events and that if seeing drought this year that must mean that it will fade away the next. What Dr. Elwynn Taylor told us in 2012 is that we had not seen anything yet. The drought of this century was still coming. People impact droughts and the drought in the western U.S. has been years in the hydrological making. The worst droughts impacting agriculture have been four-year or longer drought events.
