"Precipitation during February and March usually Is quite heavy and if a normal precipitation occurs this year there should be no serious water shortage despite the marked February I deficiency," Dean Clyde stated. However, if precipitation is during sub-norm- al a serious this period, water, shortage in northern Utah would develop quickly. "Measurement of the snow cover on March 1 will be noted with considerable interest because at that time the water supply picture for northern Utah will be fairly well formed. The February snow survey made on Mt. Logan, showed a water accumulation of 4 5, 8 1 and 7.5 inches respectiicly at elevations of 7000. 8000 and 9000 feet. This compares with 13.7, 23 8, and 27.3 inches at the same elevations in 1943. The 1924-4- 0 average precipi. tation for the three elevations mentioned is 8.7, 12.6 anl 15 inches respectively.

The accumulation of water in snow storage during the month was 1.9. 3.2 and 2 inches respec-- I tively.
