Likewise, the snowpack percent of <br />average in most of these basins has gone up. The White River Basin remains at 85% of average, <br />which is the same as last month, while the North Platte has been boosted to 107% of average, <br />which is 7% higher than last month. Precipitation measurements during April were a whopping <br />134% of average, which is the highest monthly accumulation this water year. The water year total <br />is now 98% of average. There has been 145% of the precipitation there was last water year by this <br />time. Reservoirs in the basin have slightly higher storage amounts than last month, at 98% of <br />average for this time of year. There is 100% of last year's storage amount. Streamflow forecasts <br />remain nearly the same as last month at below to well below average for most of the sites. They <br />range from 60% of average on the White River near Meeker, to 91 % of average on the Yampa <br />River at Steamboat Springs. <br />
