Well it is 115-120F this month... You'd need some pretty hardy grass to sustain that. Lake Mead has been low for the past few years but we aren't running out anytime soon.

The city reimburses you around $1 per square foot of grass that you convert over to "desert landscape" (rocks and cacti and shit), because it saves water and prevents dust storms or something.
