Welcome back. Just yesterday I was looking at your profile to determine when the last time you posted was....May 9th.

I imagine with all of the water that it's getting kind of buggy down that...

Screengrabbed this little snippet -- apparently 2019 was the 2nd wettest Spring on recorded history in Utah.

Did you go to mememaker.com? That's too funny.

Called it.

Driving over Soldier Summit en route to Price this morning was an absolute blizzard.

Been a long time since I can recall a Spring like this. It's almost June for cryin' out loud. I'm guessing...

On Wednesday 5/8 I was up on the Markagunt Plateau on my way over to Alton from Cedar City -- most spots have up to 4+ feet of snow on the ground still, and Navajo Lake is still covered with a sheet...

LOL what isn't?

The same could be said for most high alpine areas of Utah. This of course means that Memorial Day weekend is going to be an absolute zoo at places like Moab, Arches, Capitol Reef, and The Swell. I...

^^^Global Warming (I mean) Climate Change...

Yup - half inch at my place.

Something funky is going on here. Current level (April 24) is reported as 3569.24. -- So it has only gone up by 0.53 feet in the last 10 days?!

:ahhh::jaw-dropping::eek3:


Yeah that is scary! Who was the engineering firm/s who were contracted to design the dam? Do you recall which construction company built it?

Current level is 3568.71 as of April 14.

My guess is it will top out at 3622.5' -- which should be enough to open up Antelope Point, but still about 30' short of Hite Marina levels (3650'). :cry1:

Regardless, a few weeks ago the meteorologist at KSL said that Lake Powell would likely see an increase of roughly 35' - 40' this year.

Snowpack levels exceed 150% for most of the entire state of Utah. Considering we're only half way through April, I'd say this is a good news/bad news type situation.

Good news: We're in great...

:facepalm1: I'm calling it right now.....


SAR is going to be very busy this Spring. Hopefully nobody gets killed.

Global warming...

What I find interesting is that there is this notion that the weather becomes more severe the further north you go. Weber County typically gets more precip than Washington County. But this winter is...

It was a dud at my place (as usual). We got a maximum of 0.5" :becca:

[ahem] I'll remind you that this is all your fault because you prayed in earnest to that Snow God. It appears he has delivered.

Queue the Debbie Downers to come out and remind us all that "we're gonna need 5 more winters like this to happen consecutively to pull us out of this crippling, ongoing drought we're experiencing." ...

"All this moisture is gonna push off to the East and Altuna...!"

"Buddy -- you got that moisture on your head!"

I was not really surprised to see the difference in weather coming into work this morning. SLC has what looks like 6+ inches right now (7:40am), and yet there's barely a skiff in Ogden. A quarter of...
