Snow Pack Levels Extremely High

Lee Hackleman, water supply specialist at the federal Natural Resources Conservation Service issued a report today saying water content of the snowpack statewide's now 327% of average, last weeks estimate was 227%. Last year at this time it was 126% of average and Wyoming had significant flooding. What's coming this year? Hackleman tells the Billings Gazette we'll either have high runoff into Jult, or there's be new all-time flow rrcords set. It all depends on the weather.
