I took a turn out of Northern Death Valley NP and went into California’s Owens Valley. Not surprisingly, the Sierras had little snow. The first image is from last winters snow level in Owens Valley and the last three are from this years winter. Quite a difference.

The rivers and creeks won’t be so robust as usual, Yosemite Falls will be dry by July

Maybe California will get a lot of snow in the next 2 months. We are really dry in Utah

Last winter made us think we were through with the drought. This seems like the worst year yet.

Looks like the Sierras got 2-3 feet of new snow last week. I heard the snowpack went from 10% of normal to 37% with more storms on the way. California will be fine
