The record drought plaguing California isn’t limited by lines on a map. Arid conditions caused by dwindling rainfall and snowpack are stretching across the West. In Washington’s Yakima Valley, popular for growing wine grapes and beer hops, officials are cutting off water to about 1,700 farmers for three weeks starting today. At Lake Mead, east of Las Vegas, a 130-foot white band lines canyon walls as water sinks to the lowest since the reservoir was filled in 1937. “California has gotten the attention, and rightly so,” said Roger Pulwarty, director of the National Integrated Drought Information System at the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration. “Across most of the West, dry conditions are expected to persist.”

We know from Luke 21:25 that disruptive weather patterns are going to get worse the closer we get to the Lord’s return. One such way to see these disruptive weather patterns is to find yourself in the midst of an El Nino weather pattern. It appears that one is coming. There is a video about the coming El Nino found in the news today. Click the link below.
