Kern River run off predicted to be downright miserly
Kern River watershed watcher Scott Williams put out what will be his final Kern River Snow and Water Report May 3 and the news was grim. The predicted run off for the Kern River has dwindled from an already meager 33% of normal last month to a downright miserly 28% of normal this month. The snow pack just didn’t materialize this year and what snow there was has diminished quickly, according to Williams’ report.
