As of Feb. 1 the reservoir held 104,000 acre-fee- t and the capacity is 154,000 acre-feeHague said usually water is brought into the reservoir all winter from the Weber and Duchesne Rivers through the Duchesne tunnel and Weber-Prov- o Canal to bring up the supply, but none has been brought in from these sources this winter. HIGHER THAN NORMAL David B. Gardner, commissioner of Utah Lake and Jordan River, said the lake is higher than normal and precautions are being taken by opening the channel and dropping water into the Jordan River. He said there may be some minor flooding along the river In Salt Lake County, but nothing serious unless there is an extremely warm trend in temt. peratures. However, he noted this is based only on the flow from Utah Lake into the Jordan River and does not cover what might happen when other stream flows drop down Into the river J.

ONE OF SNOWIEST For Salt Lake City, the winter is shaping up as one of the snowiest on record. So far 83.3 inches of snow have fallen, according to Weather Bureau records at the Salt Lake International Airport, and there are still one or two snowy months to go. The r e c o r d is 117.3 inches for the entire winter of 1951-5Other high years were 1943-491.3 with inches, 1948-4with 88.2 inches and 1963-6with 87.4 inches. There's a chance this winter could surpass those three, but hopefully not the record year. is the January usually snowiest month of the year, with December running second and then February and March. Last December was the second snowiest on record with 33.3 inches. January tapered off, however, with only 13.7 inches, but now February has come on strong with 27.6 inches. This broke the previous February record of 20.9 Inches in 1936. Alta and Brighton are record snow depths. Alta had 150 inches on the ground after the last storm, and .Brighton reported a total depth of 168 inches. Fark City has been almost paralyzed by heavy snows this winter, especially after the last storm. The weight of the snow caused two vacant buildings and a garage to collapse. 4 9 HFRMS CAR REPAIR 2150 I. W.
