Water managers and hydrologists are eyeing a below-average Snake River Basin snowpack and say that a dry, warm spring in the forecast presents little hope for a surplus of snow in the weeks ahead.
As of Monday morning, the water content of the snow at 22 SNOTEL monitoring stations scattered around the Snake watershed averaged out at 87% of the long-term median. While that doesnât depart too far from the norm, itâs a change for a part of the Northern Rockies thatâs enjoyed an above-average snowpack for seven consecutive winters.
âUsually, the Snake is always about average or above average, but this year looks like what happened in 2012 or â13,â said Jim Fahey, a hydrologist for the U.S. Department of Agricultureâs Natural Resource Conservation Service.

One farmer claimed to have learned more in one day of master irrigator training than he had in five years of farming on his own.
For another, the light bulb came on when he realized by making one simple change he could save $10,000 a year.
Colorado Master Irrigator program manager Brandi Baquera was thrilled to share those glowing endorsements during a panel presentation at the virtual Ogallala Aquifer Summit in late March. She always believed the program’s “one-stop shop” format was exactly what the region’s irrigated farmers needed.
The first class of the master irrigator program, which was held a little over a year ago, offered 32 hours of instruction to 25 producers who collectively farm 20,000 acres across multiple counties in the Republican River Basin.
