![]() ![]() ![]() The extremely wet Western winter has also improved the long-term precipitation shortfalls that had accumulated over several years, bringing parts of western Oregon, southern Idaho, Nevada and central Utah out of extreme drought. Healthy snowpack and replenished reservoirs have helped ease California out of its long-term drought, the driest three-year stretch on record. In the southern Sierras, which generally receives less snow, average snowpack levels reached 62.6 inches, nearly triple the historical amount. ![]() On that day, the average statewide snowpack levels - as measured by the amount of liquid water available in the snow - were more than double the historical average for California. Warming temperatures over the past decades have generally resulted in snow that is concentrated at colder, higher elevations, said David Simeral, a research scientist with the Desert Research Institute.Ĭolder-than-normal temperatures across much of the West also helped build up and sustain a deep snowpack in California’s Sierra Nevada and parts of the intermountain West, including northern Arizona, western Colorado, Nevada and Utah.Īpril 1 is a benchmark date for when water managers expect snowpack to peak. Some of that winter snow fell at unusually low elevations, from a range of 500 to 2,000 feet, a rare sight in regions like the hills overlooking the San Francisco Bay Area. Note: The Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes determined the atmospheric river events that made landfall in or heavily impacted California based on approximate latitude, strength and timing of storms. The last two snowmen are arranged in a way that resembles the JoJo Approach Internet meme.Source: California Department of Water Resources and Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes.A total of five snowmen can be seen outside the playable area: one near the RED base wearing A Well Wrapped Hat and a RED Merc's Muffler, one near the BLU base wearing a Ghostly Gibus and a BLU Merc's Muffler, one on the back of the BLU base with a Nine-Pipe Problem, and two near the Tree on the BLU side, one with two yellow Flashes of Inspiration and one wearing a Starboard Crusader.Another two deer cutouts can be found outside of the playable area close to each base.Upon closer inspection, they connect five wooden deer cutouts and a wooden sleigh cutout, the right-most deer having a glowing red nose.
