Snowpack back to normal?

Yes, according to my limited looking at data this morning, these recent small, but yet important snowstorms have put several river basins back in the "near normal" category in terms of the amount of snowpack in the mountains. A month ago, we were in the low to mid 70's percentage-wise compared to average. Now we are closer to that 80-85% mark. While we still aren't at normal yet, we are getting closer, and a few more storms, will help get us to a much better category when it comes to the discussion about the upcoming water conditions in the summer. While we still have a ways to go, I'll keep an eye on it, and let you know when we get there!
