The Idaho Water Supply Outlook Report for March states that Idaho saw lighter than expected snowfall in February and that the forecast for runoff has dropped slightly from last month, but is still well above average. The Northern part of the state has a snowpack that is 90-100% of average. Central and Southern Idaho have snowpacks in the range of 130-155% of average.

The report forecasts that streamflow runoff will be 135% of average for the Middle Fork of the Salmon from a snowpack that is 123% of average. Congratulations to Stephen Gauvain who guessed this correctly (as part of a contest in our e-News) and won an ECHO baseball cap.
