What an idiotic site to fail to take in consideration that desert
regions get less rainfall than tropical regions.


Huh? What are you referring to?


I looked up arizona which is having normal rainfall. The idiotic site
reported that phoenix is in a severe draught. It is only a draught if
you think phoenix gets the same amount of rainfall as new england.
It doesn't. It's the ****ing desert. 12 inches a year is normal and
12 inches in a year isn't a severe draught.
