Nevada Snow Survey Signals Lower Runoff From Snow
The Nevada section of the Weather Bureau issued a seasonal snow survey showing acre feet and percentages, noting 155.5 per cent less than the Conservative Estimate due to higher water duty and reduced downstream flow. Walker Basin measurements at Coleville indicate April and May runoff 76,800 acre-feet, 13.3 per cent above the Conservative Estimate, with April May runoff at 9,700 acre-feet or 46.7 per cent of normal, affecting Lovetack Valley reservoirs and water availability. July to September outlook uncertain as flow depends on late summer precipitation and mountain snowpack.
