California has more snow than the drought-stricken state has seen in five years. The state’s Department of Water Resources reported the water content of the Sierra Nevada snowpack is at 115 percent of its historical average. The electronic readings are at their highest since 2011, when it reached 129 percent. Sierra snowpack contributes nearly one-third of California’s water. The last four years have been the state’s driest in recorded history. But state water managers say reservoirs remain far below historical levels, despite the wet winter. Snowpack needs to be at 150 percent by April 1st, to ease the drought.
