... *bush areas* of low level scrublands eg the acacias, wattles, and saltbushes. It all adds up eventually to change the local sub-climate system. Everyone knows evaporation from vegetation leads to local rainfall nearby, because it pushes the atmospheric humidity conditions to a tipping point that will cause rain. That tipping point is a set %% all things being equal, that has not changed since earth began, unless physics ...

...The point you are definitely missing is that, in my case, the water was rising out of the ground, not falling out of the sky. As the water table was above ground level, there wouldn't have been anywhere for rainfall to run off to. Therefore, the situation is neither better nor worse, except that I now don't have to walk through a shallow pond to get to the garage. The 'shallow pond' is on your property ...

... result of the falling river levels. “I think the water level will continue going down if we don't get heavy rain,” Mr Vilasack said. Mr Vilasack said about 8,145 families in 145 villages of the capital's six districts had been affected by the flooding and authorities were currently assessing the cost of the damage. The height of the Mekong is decreasing in several provinces as rainfall has eased in the past couple of days. dkj

... rapid, often over night, revolution, and while most died, a few survived. We- of the few, or we- of the many? Diamond also outlines which communities survive. ie, homogeneous, in an area that gets decent rainfall, moderate climate, and standing timber. The Baltic nations had all of that, and when the USSR collapsed, the lights in Riga, Tallin, and Vilna- didnt even blink. Other areas saw famine, genocidal warfare, and demagoguery. ...
