News Release: Winter’s First Snow Survey Set for Jan. 3
From the California Department of Water Resources (DWR):
“With water officials bracing for a possible third consecutive dry year in California, the Department of Water Resources (DWR) will conduct the season’s first snow survey on January 3.
“This survey’s results likely will be far different than last winter’s initial readings which showed water content in the snowpack at 134 percent of normal for the date, just as California was turning dry after wet storms in November and December.”
