The Central Sierra snow pack for the winter 2024/25 as of January 21st, 2025 is currently not looking good for a strong Spring runoff. To date: The foothills have received a quarter of the annual rainfall; not a drop of rain in January, 2025; the current snow pack at 7,000 foot is in inches as opposed to feet. Incoming storms are in the forecast on or after January 25th, 2025.

January 25, 2025 finally received a dusting of snow, hopefully opening the storm door.

January 31, 3025 atmospheric river inbound, forecasted to dump up to 4 inches of rain and 4 feet of snow above 6,500 feet within a 48 hours period; accompanied by high winds. (storm would drift to the north yielding less than 4 inches of snow).

February 6, 2025
The California Department of Water Resources conducted the second manual reading at Phillips Station in the Sierra Nevada, finding that the snowpack has fallen well below average following an extremely dry January. The survey recorded 22.5 inches of snow depth and a snow water equivalent of 8 inches—just 46% of the historical average at that location.
