We have received a foot of snow out of this week's storm that first dropped rain on you a few days ago.

Dear WeatherCat climate watchers,

April is almost over so I can provide the tally of rain for this month.  It was another month of abundant rainfall, falling just a hair short of double what is normal for April.  Here is the graph:



As a result, we are at 42.99" of rain when normal is just 25.4"!!  That turns out to be 175% of normal.  It is looking like May will at least start out warm and dry, but at this point the wet season is essentially over.  The time has come to start using that water so the plants can survive the heat.

Cheers, Edouard

Your April storms dropped a total of 29 inches of snow on us. This winter season, I measured almost 32 feet of snowfall at our place. This is a record and more than twice what we get in a normal winter! Our serious drought conditions were declared resolved a couple of months ago, at least for now. We haven't started to deal with runoff yet, but it is now warming up so we are being cautious. It has been quite a winter in the western United States.
