  March 2013 was considerably warmer than average in the Lake Almanor Basin, with low temperatures running about 1.5 degrees F above the norm and daytime highs averaging nearly 7 degrees above expected values.

    Precipitation levels were on the low side, continuing the trend experienced in the previous two months. Were it not for the extremely heavy precipitation in November and December, the area would be facing drought conditions by now.

 

Almanor gets a jump on annual precipitation

  After our typical dry summer months, autumn has turned unusually wet in the Lake Almanor Basin.

  October and November brought both rain and snow to the area, with very heavy rains arriving the last few days of November.
