California's snowpack for the 2023-24 season has seen significant improvements, with the state reaching 100% of the April 1 average snow water equivalent. The Sierra snowpack is currently 4% above normal, and Utah's snowpack is at 122% of the median.

Great view of The Sierra #snowpack, where they are sitting at 4% above normal (104%) to date for SWE. THAT is good news!! @NWSSacramento @NWSReno https://t.co/RWeYx9Pass
Record heat led to a “lost winter” in the Midwest, but a late-winter surge pushed California’s snowpack above normal. Here’s how the state bucked the trend. with @jackjlee for @sfchronicle https://t.co/lgT3afJfsy
Utah state snowpack is now at 122% of median. Our numbers in central and southern Utah will go up Friday-Saturday. #utwx https://t.co/MFesykQnco

100% of statewide April 1 avg #snow water equivalent has been reached in California! Dry conditions are expected to persist for the next 7-10 days but it is great to come off the heels of a massive winter and into another where our snowpack has hit average! #CAwx #CAwater https://t.co/x9g1bpmda1
