California Precipitation and Water Supply


Despite the recent gnashing of teeth about the relatively dismal snowpack reports, California's total precipitation and reservoir storage are tracking mostly at or above normal. April's storms have kept the important Sierra Nevada and Cascade watersheds at or above normal, and these indices account for both rainfall and snowfall.  A summary of the 154 largest reservoirs in the state shows them to be at 118% of their April 26th historical average.
