Old Man Winter

Where the hell are ya?!

After several back-to-back years of generous snowpack levels and plenty of cool clear water, Idaho and much of the West and Northern Rockies are having their “water year rug” yanked out from under them. Granted, the La Nina trend of recent years has seemed to push winter conditions down the calendar a bit. Seems the majority of precipitation has been falling into March and April, even May last year. Are we going to be bailed out again this year? A big 4th quarter Tebow score to bring our snowpacks up to parr? For the sake of rivers, fish, wildlife and irrigators… lets hope so!
