Water With Your Lunch: Know Your Snow 2023

Join the experts from CAIC, NOAA, and the Colorado River District for our popular Water With Your Lunch webinar episode of Know Your Snow, exploring what conditions look like on the ground right now and what that could mean for rivers and water supply this summer.
65% of the natural flows of the Colorado River originate from the snow collected by the mountains within the River District’s boundaries. Forecasters closely examine conditions relating to this snowpack including the snow-water equivalent, avalanche risk and monitoring, as well as soil moisture and predicted meteorological trends to estimate the flows of the river and plan for future water management.
