"Don’t call it a ‘drought’: Climate scientist Brad Udall views Colorado River crisis as the beginning of aridification"

“This isn’t a drought, it’s something else,” he said. “Myself and other scientists are trying to use a different term: Aridification.”

Aridification is defined as “the gradual change of a region from a wetter to a drier climate.” According to Udall, it also means “declining snowpacks, it’s earlier runoff, it’s a shorter winter, it’s more rain, less snow, it’s higher temps. It’s drying soils, it’s severe fires, it’s forest mortality, it’s a warm, thirsty atmosphere.”

Water: John Oliver Tonight
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtxew5XUVbQ

I'm not really a fan of the John Oliver schtick to be honest, but he does hit the major points here.

There is one point where he has video of the governor of Utah beseeching people of all faiths to pray for rain. The lip syncing is so far off, it seemed like a comedy voice over, not even very well done. But actually, it's legit. The governor did in fact make a video in which he says "we need some divine intervention" and says that if everyone prays together for the weekend of June 4-6, "we may be able to escape the deadliest aspects of the continuing drought."
