(Undated) — Almost half of California is now in exceptional drought. That’s U.S. Drought Monitor’s driest level. It’s at 47-percent, up from one-third just a week ago. One-hundred-percent of the state has been in some level of drought for several weeks and it’s just entering the historically driest season. Some of the impacts of exceptional drought include fields left fallow, orchards removed, fish relocated, recreational activities curtailed, poor air quality, widespread water shortages and extreme wildfires.
