Rain totals above normal in Southern California and adding up in the north
Skiers and snowboarders already know this: California’s recent storms have lifted the state’s precipitation totals to the respectable range in the northern part of the state, and to well above normal in the south, according to Jan Null of Golden Gate Weather Services.
Snowpack in the Sierra Nevada is especially critical for California’s water supply. Shown here are selected cities and the Sierra Nevada indices of stations operated by the state Department of Water Resources. This year, Northern California got a late start on its rainfall season while Southern California got an early start with some big storms that brought rain statewide. Ordinarily, the rainfall season would begin first in the northern part of the state, then follow a little later in the south.But for getting a late start, the northern Sierra is off to a decent start. An eight-station index of measuring locations in the mountains north of Lake Tahoe is at 83% of normal.
