I flew from Denver to San Diego earlier today and was very impressed with the amount of snow in the high country. Dang!!
We got at least 8" here and that's after it melted off...flooding coming.
This is gonna be a rough spring run off for a lot of people. I was talking to a former co worker and he was telling me that half his loads to Utah right now are sandbags.
yep.....I believe ya.......
765" of snow is going down hill when it melts
Was hoping for a slow melt...we will see.
I hope so, too. But I don't know if it's possible for that much snow to melt slow enough. Not sure where you are, but Utah has been dry for a few years, and now they're making up for it.
I don’t know if it can, either, but I’ll be danged if the creeks aren’t still running at winter levels, and the snow is melting down, if only on the sunny side slopes. All I can figure is that the soil has thawed underneath that snow and is slowly soaking it up.
Of course, that only works as long as we don’t get 60’s and 70’s and wind. But anything that melts slowly now won’t come down all at once.
It looks like temps are going to turn normal in a couple of weeks, let’s hope things continue to go slow.
