One species that is native to Southern California is thought to have been carried to Spain in the ballast water of freighters...
...rains failed to fill reservoirs around the Tennessee Valley. The winter snowpack in the Rockies has been as much as 60% below normal.

She would bathe the baby in the kitchen but would have no towels...
