They are not just saying this is a drought, they are calling it a megadrought. Figures released Monday show the Great Salt Lake at an all-time low. It is the second time in less than a year's span the lake reached a new low.
The drought itself is harmful. What makes it worse is that Utahns gobble up what little water they do have. While Utah is one of the driest state in the Union, it doesn't exactly help that it uses more water per capita than any other state in the nation.
