wow, kind of depressing to look at. Not sure it’s all been updated after the storms lately but I doubt what we just got in flagstaff would change much.

We got a couple of inches the last couple of days, looks like the rim got a little more. Going to be in the mid 60's next week. Pretty muddy right now. It would be great if we could get a storm like this once a week for awhile.

we were behind in the Sierras, but just got 6+ feet in this last storm. Really wet storm too, trees and power lines down everywhere. Lots of Priuses sunk into snowbanks.

This was end of day yesterday. We will see what the storm last night took us to when they update it. Got about 2' on top of the mountain here in the southwestern area last night.

111” near Soda Springs and that’s only at 6,894. The higher elevations must’ve got hammered, not that 111” isn’t “hammered “….

I think we’re sitting at right around 6’ total year to date, which is about normal. March tends to be our big snow month so we’ll see how that goes. I just got down to the cabin last night and had to snowshoe in, but it looks to be pretty normal down here as well, for this time of year.

In my area in Washington, our basin conditions overall are pretty sad but at certain stations the snowpack is doing pretty well. We got a few inches in the foothills the last few days. I think we will get more in the coming weeks and into march. At the moment, I'm not too worried about snowpack.

We got a good storm but didn't hardly change anything

One really big storm didn't end the drought, but it did make a big difference. If you look at how much SWE (water) each basin added. It is a lot of water. But we need 3 or 4 more like it to get back to even.
