Lack of Snow May Cause Water Shortage
Abnormally warm conditions and snow deficits threaten irrigation in Wyoming and surrounding basins. State engineer John A. Whiting and meteorologist George W. Pitman note snowpack at 8 000 to 10 000 feet averages 64 percent of normal, with April depth down 45 percent. Projected seasonal flows vary by basin from 63 to 114 percent of normal, with many locales reporting poor to very poor water prospects and early runoff warnings from multiple forest districts.
