Finally getting a little snow. Need a good bit more to pull off a white Christmas, and a lot more for a 2021 growing season. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/fyvLXFhK/Winter.jpg) Have a good one,

And there’s no corn feeder in the scene. I like it even more.

Great pic.
Is most of your annual water there from snow?

IronBender: Is most of your annual water there from snow? Yes. We're at about 4000+ feet with essentially no effective precip after early May. Typically about 70 to 80% of our total precip comes as winter snow,with our irrigated flood meadows counting on about 2 months of spring run off to get things watered up and growing. Lots of alfalfa pivots around too, but deep water use is exceeding recharge. Thus a moratorium on high capacity wells, and the powers will have to figure out some method to address that issue. By about July plant life has sucked up available moisture and our world goes mostly brown in both the meadows and desert. Life does go on later, however, as one moves up into our highest elevations where we transition into pine/fir forest.

We've got over two feet of it on the ground right now.

We have had winter- such as it is- for some time. About a foot of snow, settled now, and more coming down this morning. Couple inches on the deck. Unfortunately, we have a warm front coming in in a couple days- forcast is 40 degrees and rain. We're having fun now!  ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/iHUUMy9.jpg)

1 Minute, how did Snow Mountain get it's name?
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
