Rainbow over the Feed Yard

Although we've had a really dry winter so far, we have had a few clouds roll in recently with a hint of moisture. It's amazing how much a couple mountain ranges can make a difference. The National Weather Service bases its water supply outlook on records from Ely. Ely has gotten quite a bit more snow than Snake Valley this winter--today they woke up with four inches of new fluff while we had none! Perhaps we'll get lucky with some of the next storms. The NRCS does their first snow survey up the Baker Creek watershed the beginning of March, and then we'll have a better snow estimate for Snake Valley.
