Cool! Good for California!ski3pin said:In the central Sierra Nevada in California - Feb. 1st, 2017 manual snow survey results for water content -
The average for the Mokelumne River Basin is 125% based on the Feb 1st surveys.
The average for the American River Basin is 128% based on the Feb 1st surveys.
I think we've had nearly two inches today. It seems similar to a cow and flat rock sort of event. Per the forecast, we may have snow tonight, followed by freezing rain Wednesday.ski3pin said:Another round of wet storms coming through with heaviest rain Tuesday with rising snow levels..,................Warm and wet.
