Inconsistent and light snowpack across Rocky Mountains
The Milk and Red Deer rivers are forecast to be much below average due to inconsistent snowpack in the Rockies. Bow River system stations largely report record-driest conditions, while Oldman River at Lethbridge projects summer flow at half to three quarters normal. Bow Basin ranges reach up to 90 percent of long term average with Oldman joining Bow to form the South Saskatchewan north of Grassy Lake. No specific analysis of the South Saskatchewan. Cypress Hills readings are awaited with late February data published in March.
