Oh great, so my area in Utah is still in the "D3 (Extreme Drought)" designation. The horses out on the Pony Express Trail will have a tough year (though the BLM has put a water trough for them near Simpson Springs).
What I do know is that CA has gained upper levels of precipitation this year. And, as those storms head East they hit Utah and Colorado. My personal measure is simple - in a wet year, I have to shovel more snow. I've done that 3 times this year. And, in the preceding 4 years, I've only shoveled once a year.

I think I saw a report that most of the reservoirs were back to high 30-mid 40% range.
Snow pack was much higher.Quote:
As of Monday, California’s snow water equivalent was 199% of normal for the date (January 9), according to the California Department of Water Resources.
we received over 3" of rain in the last 24 hours but right now there is this weird yellow orb in the sky

I just hate the fact that the residents of California had to pay such a heavy price to get some water.
Counties let people build in stupid places, morons make the purchase without doing a risk assessment (FYI that report is free from the state.)Quote:

I did find that but with no other information it was hard to translate that into % full.
max capacity is 1.7 billion gallons so use an online converter to acre feetQuote:

According to the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, Hetch Hetchy Reservoir can store as much as 117 billion gallons for the Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System, which serves San Francisco, Santa Clara, Alameda and San Mateo counties.
That = 290900 x 325851 gal/Ac-ft
117,000,000,000 gal /325851 gal/Ac-ft= 359,060 Ac-ft
Thus current volume is a bit over 80%---far better than the last time I saw it!
