In our desert climate, the water we use to shower, brush our teeth or do our landscaping with mostly originates from one area. That’s the Upper Colorado Basin snowpack, which is our long-term water storage system that’s replenished every winter. Currently, that snowpack sits at 76% of the 30 year average. That’s a pretty significant difference compared to the 91% reported just last month...That snowpack feeds the Colorado River, and that water drains into Lake Powell and Lake Mead. Both reservoirs remain relatively low. As of early February, Lake Mead is 34% full and Lake Powell is at 36%.
