Snow Survey Underway

California water managers will conduct the season’s first manual surveys of the state’s crucial winter snowfall later today. Winter snow in the Sierra Nevada mountains supplies drinking water for much of California as it melts throughout the spring and summer. A more limited index from the Department of Water Resources shows mountain precipitation has been lower than average so far this year. Gov. Jerry Brown declared a formal end to a three-year drought emergency in 2017 but said water conservation efforts must continue.
