ZeroHedge] Readers know by now that the Western US is facing a megadrought, heat waves, fallow lands, wildfires, water shortages, grasshopper plague, and deteriorating reservoir conditions.

Some of these reservoirs are at risk of having their hydroelectric power plant cease operations because the water level is too low to turn the turbines.
