FEBRUARY UPDATE
A lot of people were excited when we got our *first* big storm of the season this week. I mean, it is good to be excited about that, but people were saying all our seasonal woes were solved by this one big storm. Now everything is fine and back to normal. Ummm, not even close. What are the facts, man? As of Feb 1, the snowpack is now 66% of average (northern CA), 73% (central Sierra), 58% (southern Sierra). Rainfall is at 51% (north), 60% (central), 46% (south). The snowpack did go up from this storm, but obviously we need a lot more *just* to get back to average (4 more big storms at least). The second big storm that was supposed to happen on Feb 1 looks like it is turning out to be somewhat of a bust, and now we are going back to a dry period again. Pray it does not last long.
Enjoy your week everyone. Here’s a pretty waterfall for you. Mill Creek Falls, Lassen Volcanic National Park.
