my dad built ski lifts and jumps for the 60 Olympics, and if my memory is right the year before we had to use roof hatches to enter and exit our houses there. i remember dad worrying that there would be too much snow to finish the jump in time. they made it and i was one of the first to use it!

Ed[/quote] Carson City's water comes from a couple of alpine lakes, above Lake Tahoe, as well as wells drilled in the valley floor. Again, there is a lot of snow above the Carson Valley basin, as well. [/quote]
I bet we can't get into Hobart to fish until June! I usually do a June camping trip on the Carson near China Springs. I fish while the kiddos swim. Me thinks with runoff this year I might make it July...

We have an apology in this morning's paper by their weatherman. They all missed it BIG time. We have winds around 30 and 6" of new snow. It was totally unexpected. He said that there was a Pacific disturbance that they all missed. It's a good thing we didn't get more snow because many of the county roads are drifting shut even with this.

And in the East, we're 20* above average and only have had a total of 2" of snow here all year.
It's currently 70*. Our average high for this date is 48*.
You guys can keep it.

Every reservoir in Idaho is going to be full through the end of irrigation season. I don't know about about Lake Mead, but if the Utah and Colorado rockies are at 170%, it'll fill a long way. Remeber, the first 100% gets used up, the rest gets to run down river. 70% of normal going down river is a LOT of water.
