California governor marks official end of state's historic drought

A wet winter that filled reservoirs with rainwater and blanketed the Sierra Nevadas with heavy snow has officially brought an end to California's historic drought. On Friday, Gov. Jerry Brown lifted the emergency order in effect since January 2014.   “This drought emergency is over, but the next drought could be around the corner,” Brown said in a statement. “Conservation must remain a way of life.”
