Did we get enough snow this winter?

This winter was oddly lacking in snow for Rexburg.  But many say it only really matters if it snowed in the mountains in order for the area to avoid drought conditions.

According to Idaho Department of Water Resources all of the area had a below average snow pack this year.  Though, mountains on this side of the Snake River Plain did better than the ones across the valley in the central mountains.  

Despite the lower than normal snow fall, the reservoirs in the Upper Snake River Valley are not badly depleted and are slowly refilling with melt water.  

While we have had an abnormally dry winter, we are not currently in danger of a drought.  Hopefully next year will be wetter.
