Will California Survive This Drought?

Living in California and not all that far from San Jose I had to share these pictures. These are some amazing captures of just how dry California has become in the last couple years. Sure we have got some rain in the last few days and will get some more this weekend but it won't be anywhere near the amount that we as a state need to get out of the current drought we are in. We need at least a few months of non stop rain. Remember folks, these pictures are from San Jose, the valley's are even dryer.
The cracked-dry bed of the Almaden Reservoir is seen on Friday, Feb. 7, 2014, in San Jose, Calif. Dry California got a much needed taste of rain, but drought-watchers hope it was just a teaser for a much wetter weekend. A bigger storm expected to arrive late Friday and last through Sunday could dump as much as 2 feet of snow on the slopes of the Sierra and 6 inches of rain on San Francisco Bay Area mountains.
