Spring Snowmelt Preparation
- The sierra snowpack remains at historic levels, due to relatively cool temperatures through mid-April. According to the National Weather Service, it is still 300-400% of normal for mid-April. Gradual melting has begun at low to mid elevations the last couple weeks.
- The short-range forecast (next 1-2 week) is for warmer temperatures with no significant precipitation events through the end of April. There is, however, a high risk of at least minor to moderate flooding from May through July for Eastern Sierra creeks and streams – DO NOT CROSS SNOW COVERED CREEKS AND STREAMS.
- Sandbags are available for property use from the Cinder Shed at the Town Yard – 299 Commerce Drive.
