<br />2008 Snowmelt Flood Preparation <br />Summary of March-May Snotel Data <br /> <br />May 18, 2008 <br /> <br />SNOTEL data for those locations where the March 3, 2008 reading for Snow-Water <br />Equivalent (SWE) was over 1200/0 of average are listed below. Light shading shows <br />SNOTELs where the average is between 1400/0 and 1590/0 of average, while darker <br />shading shows SNOTELs where the average is at or above 1600/0 of average. This is a <br />first cut attempt at focusing attention on those watersheds where we should be most <br />concerned about the possibility of snowmelt flooding. <br /> <br />In the tables below, the first row indicates the S\VE readings from March 3, 2008, the <br />second row indicates values from March 18, the third row indicates values from March <br />31, the fourth row indicates values from April 14, the fifth row indicates values from <br />May 1, and the sixth row indicates values from May 18. These values have been left in <br />the tables for historical infonnation and trend determination. SNOTEL sites have not <br />been deleted from the table unless they have fallen below 100% on May 18, or if average <br />SWE for the date has dropped below 5 inches. <br />
