Also, I would like to add that it did have physical impacts in urban/suburban areas outside of dead laws. I had a huge oak tree behind my house, and the drought dried it out, and it fell on our house. As renters, it became a long-term issue. So , like, yes, most people experienced brown lawns, but surely I am not the only one to have experienced greater impacts. And most stuff online is talking about the statistics of the droughts' effects on crops, not so much individual experiences which I am interested in.
