Excerpt from Water Supply Outlook for Washington and Federal-State-Private Cooperative Snow Surveys: As of Mar. 1, 1980In the Upper Columbia Basin in washington and tributary areas, the snow pack has both increased, percentagewise, and decreased. The Spokane Drainage has decreased 7 percent, for example, and the Okanogan has increased 11 percent. The overall change is for a slight increase from that previously reported. Along the Lower Columbia, only three drainage areas are considered and these indicate the snow pack is just about the same as was reported last month. 'mill Creek has decreased 5 percent, Klickitat has increased 5 percent, and the Cowlitz has decreased 5 percent. In the Puget Sound Drainage area, we have had a general decrease in the snow pack, due primarily to the warm temperatures and above normal precipitation that occurred in the area. The Skagit Drainage actually increased 5 percent while the Baker decreased 6 percent. In the Olympic Peninsula, our snow reports have not been received as of this date, but in talking with water users in the area, they indicate that the above normal temperature and above normal precipitation that occurred in the Puget Sound area extended throughout their area with a subsequent depletion of the snow cover.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
