Scientists believe California is inching closer to the average snow level, but the concerns is warmer temperatures that may arrive sooner than expected.
Scientists of the UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Lab found California’s snow water level is at about 83% of median, thanks to 13 inches of the fresh snow that fell between Wednesday and Thursday.
We are now at 85% of median snowfall and 83% of median snow water equivalent to date. More on the way!Schwartz said the incoming storm this weekend could bring an additional 2 to 4 feet of snow, starting Saturday afternoon through next Tuesday. But for scientists like Schwartz, the current concern is not whether California will get enough snow. It’s whether warmer temperatures will arrive earlier like last year, causing the rapid melt of snow.
