The times it never rained: 3 devastating historic Texas droughts

It's dry now, but Texas droughts in the 1930s, 1950s and early 21st century might tell us how bad it can get.

"I'd be very surprised to hear the Legislature at large talk about climate change, but I do hear a lot of talk about drought and flood, and what happens if the temperature goes up," says Jennifer Walker of the National Wildlife Federation. "They're talking around it without naming it, but more so than I've ever heard. It's kinda painful, tiny baby steps – but a little bit of progress is being made."

They had droughts in the 1930’s?

And the state did not dry up and blow away, did it?

Where did you go in Texas?

Say that about most states and it doesn't matter much. Texas is so damned large that it has regions. The Panhandle is way different than the east or the hill country. Unfortunately for Texans, the bulk of those who are fleeing to Texas are just bringing the corrupt, insane mess they created, with them...

"People are moving to Texas for a better life? Who are these people?"​

Mostly Californians and other blue staters who are not only dealing with drought and other weather extremes, but they're having to do it in states that are the most expensive to live in, as well as having to deal with other blue state crap, like sanctuary cities, high crime rates, homeless, and drug addicts stumbling around all over the fucking place!

You are just jealous of our chupacabras!

Dachshunds are ferocious hunters. They were bred to hunt rats, rabbits and any other burrowing animal.

Are you asking the question? How did we get through the drought of the 30s without screaming climate change?

Dallas, Houston, Amarillo.

My second husband was from Texas, near Pampa. It was not particularly pleasant. We are looking at the Hill country. It is spectacularly beautiful.

DRIED UP: Texas cities in fear of running out of water

Climate change is not being kind to that region. Neither are the battles in the rightwing social wars.

California's water problems are much worse. I guess you have not been paying attention lately.

Also, houses are much cheaper in Texas than California. Californians are not just moving to Texas. They are spreading out all over the place, mostly likely in search of a lower cost of living.

Idiots I suspect, I've never have considered TX a free state.

Unfortunately its 'Ground Zero' for Biden's illegal invasion.
