Snowpack Totals In Wyoming Lag Behind Last Year

Wyoming's snowpack so far this season is lagging behind last year's. The Natural Resources Conservation Service in Casper said Monday that Wyoming's snowpack is at 89% of average, compared with 113% of average last year at this time. Only the Powder-Tongue basin has above average snowfall at 128%. The conservation service warns that early season averages go up and down frequently and snowpack measurements don't really become meaningful until the end of January.
