Highlights

  1. The state added 1.25 inches in April, bringing the WY total to 86.96% of normal, just shy of the forecasted range.  While that's well below March’s contribution, how does it compare historically? Over our 8-year data record, this April ranks fifth for precipitation accumulation—right near the middle. Fitting, for a year that’s been all about “average.” 
  2. With April’s accumulated precipitation, this year remains between the traces for analog years of 2017-18 and 2018-19. The plot below shows the Statewide precipitation for the current water year (26.25” through the end of April).
