CLYDE Irrigation Engineer, Utah Agricu- ltural EHrinient Station After a poor start the snow cover on the high watersheds of northern Utah increased rapidly January and materially reduced the water shortage which potential threatened on January 1. The temperatures during January except for a few days have been moderate and the precipitation on the valley floor has been above normal. This precipitation which was mostly rain or very wet snow during the first few days of the month increased with elevations and the total accumulation erf water on the high watersheds was considerably higher than on the valley floor. Below Average Snow surveys made on Mt. Logan over the weekend showed a water accumulation of 5.9, 81 and 10.2 inches, respectively at elevations 7000, 8000 and 9000 feet elevation which is 75, 70, and 75 percent respectively of that in 1939 and 66, 62, and 63 percent respectively of the last 15 years average. The accumulation of water in snow storage during the month at the respective elevations is 4.7, 6.5, and 8 3 inches. There has been little melting since January 1, and the ground remains dry under the snow. The density of the snow has increased to 26 per cent which is about average for February 1. Brighter Hope The1" Januarv 1 accumulation was 27.9 and 27.1 per cent below 28.2, the normal. By February 1 this deficiency was reduced to 20.1, 19.9 and 20.1 per cent respectively at 7000, 8000 and 9000 feet elevation. The average accumulation on February 1, in per cent of the total for April I is 59.7, 53.5 and 55.5 per cent of the respective elevations. on This year the accumulation February 1 is 36.9, 33.6 and 35.4 respectively, showing a deficiency in accumulation of approximately 20 per cent. The previous years most nearly like this are 1934, 1931, and 1926, all years of severe water shortage. It is possible to overcome the present moisture deficiency during February and March, but a shortage of precipitation during these months can easily change what is now a fair prospect for water supplies into a serious potential water .shortage.
