Only the beginning of the deluge






The snowpack is deep and wet, Friant Dam already has water coming over the spillway, the San Joaquin River is running high, and at Hwy 152 the Eastside Bypass looks like a fast running lake. Considerable interest in the snow and water levels, and weather forecast. These researchers measured the snowpack at their study site nearby the cabin, and at 6,000 ft. elevation their study site is about 500 ft. lower than the cabin. The snow measurement: 2.89 meters = 9.577 feet.
